So as the hot July sun slowly slides over the fields, the workers park their buggies
and trudge off to the picking grounds, for their daily raspberries and bitter melons
and come back to ask the farmers which are the raspberries again
while the farmer stays prudently in the shade with a selection of sunflowers to decorate the place a bit.

That's a bit of a worry having workers who don't know the difference between a rspberry and a melon.
