A LITTLE MASKIBOO STORY
The lantern fruit on the lowest branch
Torchberry tended copper vines heavy with warm lantern fruit. The brightest fruit grew high above the path, where everybody admired it. A small visitor pointed to a dark patch close to the ground.
Torchberry trained a young vine downward and hung its first fruit at a lower height. Soon the path glowed for small feet as well as tall ones. The garden's finest light was no longer the hardest to reach.
