Vegetable Deity

A silly bit of fun as I was falling asleep

Two peas in a pod

were talking of God

and wondering if he existed.

The one on the left

scoffed, "Heaven's bereft.

There is not a God!" he insisted.

The one on the right,

prepared for a fight,

said, "Heaven is well populated

By Angels and Saints

In rapturous faints

watched over by God elevated."

"You must be insane!

Do you have a brain?"

The pea on the left went ballistic.

"Oh what a retort!

You gave it no thought!

You're just being antagonistic!"

Right Pea all wary,

"On the contrary!

You just cannot see in your blindness.

"God is all around

In all sight and sound

In madness and sadness and kindness!"

Left Pea remained mute.

He thought Right astute

in the arguments that he had made.

"Now I see the Light,"

Left said, "Black and white!

There is just one more thing, I'm afraid. 

"You make a moot point.

For God does now point

To landscape that is far less brushy.

"It looks like we've been

processed by machine.

Seems God likes his peas a bit mushy!"
