By Louise Ferry "TIME TO TALK" Puppets, SPARKS (lion) and BERNIE (dog)

(BERNIE and SPARKS on Stage)

BERNIE: Sparks....

SPARKS Bernie, don't bother me. I don't have time to talk.

BERNIE: Do you believe in God?

SPARKS: Everybody believes in God.

BERNIE: Have you ever talked to God?

SPARKS Heavens no!

BERNIE: Why not?

SPARKS: Because I don't have time.

BERNIE: What do you do all day in your cave?

SPARKS I listen to the radio and watch T.V.

BERNIE: Is that all?

SPARKS I also read the paper. Especially the ads.

BERNIE: Why the ads.

SPARKS Because I buy stuff. Lots of stuff, and I never pay cash, so I am always in debt. I could work for 200 years and never pay all my bills.

BERNIE: You sound happy about it.

SPARKS: I am. I am.

BERNIE: Why?

SPARKS Because...I won't have time to talk to God for the next 200 years. (Exits)

BERNIE: But what if God should talk to you, Sparks. (Notices that Sparks is gone) Sparks, what if God should talk to you! Sparks? Gives up) I guess Sparks can't hear me...or God.
