He: "So scared and alone... who IS she?"
She: "I don't know, but she can stay over there...I don't trust her"
He: "But why my love? We don't even know her... Shouldn't we invite her over and at least say hello?"
She: "But I'm afraid"!
He: "Why dearest one?"
She: "Look at me...I'm so chippy, old, and worn....and she's so beautiful, smooth
and new! How could I ever compare?"
He: "That's not what I see when I look at you. I see years of a life well spent...of loving, giving, grace, and character. It takes YEARS to become as beautiful as you!!"
She: "Really?"
He: "Yes, I only have eyes for you...truly! And besides...have you noticed that we're joined together? I couldn't depart from you even if I wanted to...
(but don't worry...I'll never want to)"
(but don't worry...I'll never want to)"
She: "Allright then, I feel much better now. Let's invite her to come closer"
He: "See...that wasn't so bad."
She: "She's very quiet"
She: "And modest too... I'm glad about that"
She: "I think we could become friends ~ We DO have to live in the same house after all..."
He: "And look...she brought flowers as a token of her friendship"
He: "Your beauty compares to none. I will never leave you nor forsake you."
She: "And I love you to the moon and back again. Shall we go for our evening walk?"
He: "Yes, should we invite her to join us?"
She: "NO!"

And I thought my cherubs were the only ones who gossiped! This was very interesting - what our statues say behind our backs. I also love the vignette in the previous post especially the cloche! Came over from Feathered Nest.
