The purpose of sticks

Actually, sticks are not all that bothered about finding their purpose.

They go with the flow

It's a misnomer

I am not a walking stick

Wooden shadow

One day he's going to catch it

Your kindling

Has been requisitioned

Woody

A splinter returns to his old neighbourhood

Mostly timber

Mind the splinters

Supporting larger birds

May require a collaborative approach

Fences have no elbows

I'm not going to tell you again

Earplugs

For use in loud scenes

The carpenter who built himself

Don't ask me which part he made first

A twig

May be called upon to do great things

Be leaf

Be branch. Be tree

Tree-like man

You can sometimes see him, out of the corner of your eye

Leaving

And arriving

Tall ships

Have fewer barnacles

It seems odd

That an interest in woodwork should turn out like this

Ambition

What he really wanted was to be a one dollar note

Uppercase hill

A sentence all on its own

Considerable lillies

"You told me we were going to work with wood"

Pedestals

Withstanding life's little wobbles with dignity
