She walked along with her grandfather. He was supervising the construction of a boundary wall. On a whim, he picked up a stick and wrote her name, on the fresh cement wall. As he has intended, it brought a smile on her face.

A Memory Entwined Within A House

My Grandmother’s House – by Kamla Das

I received love ……. That woman died,

The house withdrew into silence, snakes moved

Among books, I was then too young

To read…

Houses have souls, series.
