FOR THE VERY SMALLEST
OUR FARM
We have a farm of 67 acres which lies towards the Ashley riverbed. To the front is the main road to Sefton. On our farm we have 30 cows, four horses, 30 pigs and two dogs. The dogs’ names are Jack and Pat MACRAE, (aged 7), Ashley.
THE CHRISTMAS TREE There never was a forest except a a tree of greenwood all decked with moon and sun. And litttle stars and candles and oranges and cake, , , And trumpets of the Chnstmastide for little childhood’s sake. And so I’m glad I’m living where people are so fine That in the winter season the tree that seems a pine Comes from the fairy gardens all spangled as does this That gleams for little children with the lips we love to kiss!
Billie; Mummy, didn’t I hear you tell cook to lock the pantry door? Mother: Yes, Billie. Why? Billie: Because I found it unlocked, and to teach her a lesson 1 ate all the tarts.
