The Forest We Planted

The forest we planted In the flatland of western Norway where the wind has no hesitation rolling sheep into a woolly ball horses turned their rump to the wind hung their heads Refusing to plough, something had to be done. Trees were planted and to our surprise survived but crooked and strong because the soil was fertile. When the trees grew strong the shielded fields, the land was plough-able again and no chicken was carried away by the wind except for ducklings but as we know, they are brainless. People began erecting small cabins in the woods it was not legal but the moist hands of the law lived in the towns, and there was a beach nearby so white it blinded you. When the law, awoke from the task of checking driving licenses, they came but could do little except given the cabins a permit which was a bonus for the middle -classes who bought the cottages. Got permission to build them more significant with white painted fences property is essential, and gates were set up, no authorized people here, this proves that money takes preference.
