,£,££,,,,, 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. ,££,,,,,£,
