Scene 1 – A woman speaks Please love me, pretty please, I’m sweet and kind and good and tend my little sweet peas whether bushed or trailing free with passion and with care for their tender hearted stems. I talk to them, I do, and whisper “I love you” from morn until the cows jump over the moon. I tell them all my secrets, I haven’t signed with F.B.I. and the C.I.A. I know wouldn’t have me if I prayed. I talk to my sweet peas, I’m sweet and kind and good so won’t you love me, pretty please, and tend my sweet peas too? Scene 2 – Another woman speaks When I was a child, I was just like you but now that I’m an adult, I wish you’d grow up too!! Helen (Just venting) |

Venting? LOL...either you're hungry, or you know the birds will be swooping soon as those peas are edible! I thought it was cute, m'dear, but I could be missing something. |

Hmmmm -- interesting and makes me think, but I wonder if I too am missing something? Susan The whole of the Universe resides within each individual heart. |

Thanks all! I certainly know that I'm missing something but it's probably not the same thing that you're all missing which must be the point of this little ditty no doubt. I guess it's only relevant to one who knows but me vent? Never! I just smile sweetly. |

"I tell them all my secrets, I haven’t signed with F.B.I. and the C.I.A. I know wouldn’t have me if I prayed. *smile* Don't be TOO sure! |

I guess this one is confusing but thanks for the offer Martie. I'm not the one with the sweet peas and icebox I've learnt never to be too sure about anything in this life. |
