#,,#,##,#, The River That'S Our River Makes A ,#,#,#,#,#
#,###,###, Large Bend Like A Scooping Hand And A #########,
##,,##,,#, Decent Days Travel North From That ,,,,,,,,##
,#,#,#,### Stands Our House In The Middle Of A ,,,,,,,#,,
#######,,# Forgotten Apple Orchard. Our House Is ,,,,,,##,,
,,,,,,#,#, Built Of Dark Clay And Abandoned By A ,,,,,#,#,#
,,,,,####, Stranger. The Window Has No Glass But ,,,,######
,,,,#,,,## Instead Steel Bars To Keep The Animals ,,,#,,,,,#
,,,##,,#,# Out. ,,##,,,,##
,,#,#,###, ,#,#,,,#,#
,#####,,#, Around The House Is A Thick, Thick ####,,####
#,,,,#,### Brush Of Ferns And Bushes. There Live ,,,#,#,,,#
#,,,###,,, The Animals That We Fight To Keep Away, ,,####,,#,
#,,#,,#,,, For They Speak To Us To Join Them In ,#,,,#,###
#,##,##,,# The Luscious Caves Below Ground. They ##,,###,,,
##,##,#,#, Mean No Harm But It Is Not In Our Best ,#,#,,#,,#
,##,###### Interest To Do So. There Is Important ####,##,#,
#,##,,,,,# Work That Needs To Be Done, And It Cant ,,,##,###,
##,#,,,,## Be Done By Animals. (Father Says This.) ,,#,##,,##
,###,,,#,# ,###,#,#,,
#,,#,,#### Every Morning Our Father Clears The #,,#####,,
#,##,#,,,# Ferns And Uproots The Bushes Only For #,#,,,,#,#
##,###,,#, Them To Grow Back Each Night. Their ###,,,###,
,##,,#,##, Leaves Are Teal, White And Yellow, Some ,,#,,#,,##
#,#,###,## Even The Color Of Wine. They Have Lilac ,##,##,#,#
####,,##,, Flowers And In The Morning They Are Wet #,##,####,
,,,#,#,#,, With Dew. ##,##,,,##
,,######,, ,##,#,,#,#
,#,,,,,#,# Father Is Away During The Day Doing #,###,####
##,,,,#### Important Things Elsewhere. He Is Weary ##,,##,,,#
,#,,,#,,,# When He Returns Home, Each Day More So ,#,#,#,,#,
##,,##,,#, Than The Next. We Learn To Cook For Him ######,##,
,#,#,#,##, So That He Does Not Have To. We Tend To ,,,,,##,##
#######,## His Clothes. ,,,,#,##,#
,,,,,,##,# ,,,###,##,
,,,,,#,### Suddenly The Dense Bushwork Is Mirrored ,,#,,##,#,
,,,,###,,, Inside. Stems And Leaves Appear Close ,##,#,###,
,,,#,,#,,, To The Walls And Far From The Light. We #,####,,#,
,,##,##,,# Are Glad, For The Flowers Are Beautiful ##,,,#,##,
,#,##,#,#, And Smell Good, And There Is Little ,#,,###,#,
###,#####, Decoration In Our House. But When ##,#,,###,
,,##,,,,#, Father Comes Home He Is Angry And Cuts ,###,#,,##
,#,#,,,##, Them All Down In A Frenzy. We Are #,,###,#,#
####,,#,#, Scared Of Him Then. #,#,,#####
,,,#,##### ###,#,,,,,
,,###,,,,, We Are Then Tasked With Removing Any ,,###,,,,,
,#,,#,,,,# Indoor Plant We See. But They Are So ,#,,#,,,,,
##,##,,,#, Beautiful! We Wait Just Until Father ##,##,,,,,
,##,#,,##, Comes Home And Until Then We Enjoy ,##,#,,,,#
#,###,#,## Them. Sometimes An Animal Will Sneak In #,###,,,##
##,,####,, But We Always Shoo Them Out. With Fresh ##,,#,,#,,
,#,#,,,#,# Cut Flowers Thrown Right Outside The ,#,##,##,#
####,,###, House He Suspects And Resents Our ###,##,###
,,,#,#,,#, Inaction. But He Doesn'T Have The ,,##,##,,,
,,####,##, Energy To Scold Us. He Weakens Quickly. ,#,##,#,,,
,#,,,##,## It Is Not Long Before He Is Still Tired ###,###,,,
##,,#,##,, Even In The Morning And Must ,,##,,#,,,
,#,###,#,, Reluctantly Leave The Outdoor Weed ,#,#,##,,#
###,,###,, Cutting To Us As Well, Untrusting That #####,#,##
,,#,#,,#,, We Will Carry It Out. ,,,,####,,
,####,##,# ,,,#,,,#,,
#,,,##,##, Now He Leaves As Soon As He'S Awake And ,,##,,##,,
#,,#,##,#, Falls Asleep As Soon As He Returns. We ,#,#,#,#,#
#,###,###, Are Left To Care For Us And The House #########,
##,,##,,#, And The Orchard. But It Is Hard And We ,,,,,,,,##
,#,#,#,### Are Distracted. We Are Not As ,,,,,,,#,,
#######,,# Persistent As Father And Quickly Fall ,,,,,,##,,
,,,,,,#,#, Behind In Our Duties. ,,,,,#,#,#
