From my window

I have a clear view

of the sea.

The fire is lit.

The cat sleeps

on a cushion

on a seat;

it isn't neat

on account of it

There is a ship

in the sea

and a cart near it

loading seaweed.

The island is

purple and green,

with flowers and trees,

and rocks made of granite

A bird gets in

I let it free

but it refuses to leave;

It'd rather stay with me .L

Later, a bee

comes in ,

it’s a busybody

and annoys me .

It's a bore indeed

Now, the dog leaps up,

it licks

my knees

and feet

I want to read

but I can't get rid 

of him .

It’s hard to believe,

I do want to read

but the birds begin

to sing

and the sheep

to bleat,

and I go to sleep.

Now you  can see

what peace

there can be

on a piece

of land by the sea.

Can you imagine

the scene?

Later, a [bi:]

It's a bore [1] [in'di:d].

 

Now, the dog [li:ps  Vp],

it  licks

my [ni:z]

and  [fi:t]

 

I want to [ri:d]

of him.
