Once upon a time
there was a little boy named Meyn the Split Pea Soup
Boy.
He set out in the world in search of some mother's
milk.
The first person he
met on his travels was an old old woman.
"Excuse me ma'am"
said Meyn, "but I have always relied on the kindness of
strangers, and I am searching for some mother's milk. Could
you help me please?"
"Well," said the old
woman, "I have not had children in many years, but you could
still try suckling on my breasts."
So Meyn suckled and
suckled but all that came out was dry and dusty and tasted
terrible. "Well,
thank you anyway," said Meyn, and continued on his
journey.
