My Banana Garden.

1
Behind my childhood home, there is are a large piece of land that is surrounded by banana trees
growing in wild disorder. 2Crowds of banana trees grow grows freely everywhere. 3Their green
leaves are is so thick that sunlight cannot pass through. 4Underneath the trees, the ground was so
moist that wild mushrooms and plants grewgrown there all year around. 51n the center centre
was were a wild field where the children of my village often fly kites. 6Every evening, just before
sunset, some birds arrive arrives to look for a place to rest their tired wings. 7They want to land
in the dark banana garden, but the banana leaves are is too wide to be made into nests. 8The bird
birds cries out and then flies away, seeking a better place to nest. 9During the rainy season, it
rains for days and days, and the banana leaves become became glossy and slick. 10The rain
also makes make the banana garden produce a very strange melody. 11On rainy days, I used to sit
near my window and listen to this wonderful song. 12Now, whenever I hear hears the plop-plop-
plop of raindrops on the roof of my small, tidy apartment in the city, I remember the beautiful,
wild banana garden of my childhood.
