We went over to our poor garden to save what we could after the frost and snow. The bottom of the basil plants were okay, and we had lots of tomatoes, and then there were these tiny, tiny zucchini that I wasn't sure would survive, so we picked those too. Sebby wanted to give them to his Monkey and Baby Monkey. He kept saying, "They're soooo cute, I wish I could just hug 'em!"Children's voices in the orchard
Between the blossom- and the fruit-time:
Golden head, crimson head,
Between the green tip and the root.
Black wing, brown wing, hover over;
Twenty years and the spring is over;
To-day grieves, to-morrow grieves,
Cover me over, light-in-leaves;
Golden head, black wing,
Cling, swing,
Spring, sing,
Swing up into the apple-tree.
--T.S. Eliot

Sebby--I love your monkeys and their tiny food! Is one of them named "Ankey?" Thanks for showing me your jungle and your monkeys.
