Dear Diary,
Today Buikhu went to his friend Nebi's house, so I almost had the house to myself. I went out to the yard and made chrysanthemum chains for a bit, wore one to the orchard, and crushed some pomegranates to give Ati a new coat of paint. I then proceeded inside and ran to my room to feed Femi lunch. I played with my top, ball, and wooden cat Ain until evening and Buikhu came home with Ab, and we ate supper together.

Oh, chrysanthemum chains are so lovely
They will make you coo like a dove-ly
Deep orange and bright yellow
They'll sooth your aching toe
They look like they're sent from up above-ly
I've been doing this for your other comments, too.
How did you know I had an aching toe?
ReplyDeleteHA! This is wonderful!
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I don't know.
