MY OLD HOUSE
He stood on the grass verge by the side of the road and
looked over the garden wall at the old house. It hadn’t changed much. The old
house built with solid blocks of granite wasn’t altered at all. But there was a
new outhouse, and there were fewer trees. He was glad to see that the jackfruit
tree still stood at the side of the building casting its shade on the wall. He
remembered his grandmother saying: “A blessing rests on the house where the
shadow of a tree falls. And so the present owners must also be receiving the
tree’s blessings. At the spot where he stood there had once been a turnstile,
and as a boy he would wing on it, going round and round until he was quite
dizzy. Now the turnstile had gone, the opening walled up. Tall hollyhocks grew
on the other side of the wall.
