Aunt emily

Of 'all my 'relatives, ^ I 'like my 'Aunt »Emily the ,best. She's my 'mother's 'youngest ч sister. She has 'never» married, | and ^ives a,lone in a 'small >village ^ 'near 4Bath. She's 'in her 'late »fifties, | but she's 'quite 'young in »spirit. She has a 'fair complexion, I 'thick 'brown /hair ^ which she 'wears in a ,bun, | and 'dark 'brown xeyes. She has a ^kind >face, | and 'when you 'meet her, | the 'first 'thing you 'notice jl is her »smile. Her^face is a 'little 'wrinkled ,now, I but I 'think she isYtill rather attractive. She is the 'sort of 'person I you can 'always 'go "to 1 if you have a »problem.

She 'likes vreading ^ and ^gardening, | and she 'still 'goes | for 'long 'walks I 'over the >hills. She's a 'very 'active ,person. 'Either she's 'making something, | or 'mending something, ^ or 'doing •something to *enter\tain herself. She's ex'tremely 'generous, | but 'not 'very 'tolerant ; with >people ^ who 'don't ag\ree with her. I 'hope I I'm as con'tented as 'she is |when I'm 'her ,age.
