A Farmer's Love Letter

A Farmer's Love Letter
A Farmer's Love Letter

Do you care at (carrot) all for me, for my heart beats (beets) for you and my love is as soft as a squash but as strong as an onion. For you are a peach with your reddish (radish) hair and turned-up (turnip) nose. You are the apple of my eye, so if we can't elope (cantaloupe) then let us (lettuce) marry anyhow, for I know we could make a happy pair (pear)."

For a fill-in-the-blanks version, see below:

This is fantastic. I love rebuses, and this one ups the ante with those great puns. Thanks for sharing this with us.
