@¨¨@@¨¨¨¨¨ 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. ¨@@@@@@¨¨@
