This summary is of The Magpies by Dennis Grover. The goal was to summarise the poem in a minimum of 60 words and a maximum of 70 words.
Firstly Tom and Elizabeth bought a farm, used bracken for their bed. Secondly we get a description of how hard Tom worked and what colour Elizabeth’s lips were. The third part is about their years of work and the growing pine. The other parts are how all the crops went to the mortgage man, Tom’s gone insane because Elizabeth’s dead. Now the mortgage corporations can’t give the farm away.
