Dear John
There’s a super property for sale,
I thought you’d like to know.
But as there’s no glass in the windows.
You will know when north winds blow!
There’s a bucket by the back door
To meet your urgent needs.
And the contents of your bucket
Will help improve your weeds.
There isn’t running water –
But a stream runs closely by.
Oh, I’m afraid it doesn’t have a roof –
But you can gaze up at the sky.
One thing I ought to mention -
For I know you'll want to know
There's not much going on near there
But to watch the daisies grow.
You’ll not be short of company -
There's sheep who're grazing near.
Electricity is out, of course -
(But I’ve always thought it’s dear).
I thought I’d write quite quickly –
Before the others know of this –
I send you all my warmest love
Best wishes - Aunty Chris. xxxxxxx
