PINEAPPLES

I had always liked pineapple.  The juice is sweet and frothy and makes your body smell good.  The shape is intriguing and unique.  I lived on a Pineapple Plantation and watched them grow sprouting smooth green leaves with prickly edges. A pineapple means 'welcome' around the world.

   But, no longer is the gold fruit of friendship and neighborly love a friend of mine.  In fact, the sight of a pineapple can make me sick to my stomach.  Especially if it is bronzed.
