Well It Is

My teacher said it is her belief,
the bean is a protein full chief,
then she pointed at me,
and asked ‘what is a pea?’
I replied, ‘it’s a mighty relief.’

Thank you Timothy … yes I do attempt to give the impression of a possibility, but of course there must be satire involved - thanks Timothy - Lindsay
