Sweet as the poem was , Bunny wanted to curse ... for like, not love, filled her ... I must tell him, but not in a dieverse. Now, how can I put a spin-nachurely, and preserve our green peace, Oh, help me a-spare-agus from a rude-a-bega, please. "Dear Peter, my friend, two-mate-toes, we can never be ... for in me, all that sprouts ... is a rosyred comradish for thee." Even though Bunny said it affectionately, I must report to you very sadly: They remained awkward over their differences to care, ... living everafter, not happily ... but as a pricklypair.

Etymology: PRICKLY, PAIR being a word play on 'prickly pear' cactus ... both can be thorny and uncomfortable.
