&£^^=,¨¨¨¨ 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. ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨,
