The Great Deku Tree
My English teacher told me this was the best story I had written and was very impressed by it. I was the only one who got full marks for story writing for this exam, so I thought I would share it.
Mamzele Aurlie possessed a good strong figure, ruddy cheeks, hair that was changing from brown to grey, and a determined eye. She wore a man's hat about the farm and an old blue army overcoat when its cold and sometimes top boots. People who did not know her often mistook her to be a man than a woman, a well built and a little scary man that is. Despite her appearance Ms Mamzele was a very kind and caring lady. She was very brave and loved nature, animals, birds and everyone close to her. She loved working in the farm and caring for the plants and animals. One day Ms Mamzele was given a visit by an animal, a cat that she had saved and looked after till his injuries were healed. The cat gave Ms Mamzele a strange looking seed and told her "This seed is a very rare seed look after it carefully and it will reward you". Ms Mamzele immediately planted the seed on her farm and began to look after it. She watered it daily twice and made sure it got its nutrients from manure for healthy growth. After a week the seed sprouted, the next day it grew completely into a large tall branched tree with 2 eyes and a mouth. The tree said to Ms Mamzele "You have cared for me so well that I have been able to grow this big and strong. My name is Deku. I am the "Great Deku Tree".
