The man with Vanilla trees!



Hay sits perfectly along the bottom!
 When you first pull in the driveway of Mr. White's estate, you"ll notice the extravogantly flowing rows of vanilla trees!
 The cows feed in the meadows around the back!
As soon as you begin to enter be careful!
 Do not step on the siamese Cat!
He"ll claw at your face!
 Put holes in your coat!
Pull out your hair!
 Then hiss at your throat!
Inside, of the library, you'll get the best view!
 When you look through the window the trees wave, back, at you!
Big petals of white, in water, like rice!
 Float along the edges towards the back of both sides!
Rose bushes detail the flowing waterfalls!
 Angels are steeped on every window pane that shows!
It looks like a mall from the outside so tall!
 A gargoyle protects it, at the fireplace stoop!
They say on a rare night when the moon is full and gray!
 A dove floats away for now peace is made!
The triangle of pie awakes it to devour any intruders near by!
 So when you get a chance, travel to foreign lands!
Visit, the mansion, where vanilla, plants, grow and flourish!
