was half past six in the morning. The air was really fresh. My dad called me
from the yard. He said something about 'banana'. I walked to where he stood
looking at one of my banana trees. I saw some of them are already yellow.

trees.

pulled off the wild grass. I also collected the old leaves and realized that
the yard looked nicer and cleaner after that.
