Indeed, what's to be created, and consumption rated. Then again, does a lettuce say ouch when bitten, or are humans ignorantly smitten when it comes to our likes, never heeding others? Still, it's the poetry that's here, and it's koolio, hugs // James :) :)

Do we know that lettuce has a voice? Perhaps it's not one that human ears can hear? Then again, if "M&M's" enjoy being eaten...do you suppose lettuce does too? Whatever, thanks so much James.

At times when my soul is awake, usually between 1 and 6am, I am amazed at what we take for granted in our daily life. How often do we consider the egg, a single blade of grass or the joyous cooling adventure of spring water, as it travels down the esophagus? Thanks for stopping by, Jan.
