The Hill-Top Garden

You will find there several horses, a vegetable garden,
Fruit trees protected with nets from the Rosellas,
Including an almond tree which bore fruit its first
Year and never again, a stunted yew tree, in
Amongst the other new-planted trees, views across
The valley to Mount Barker and a distinct lack
Of water, the sole snake in this small piece of Eden.
