In Passing

[poliphilo]

Removing the bay has made the yard a little larger.  The workmen piled rubbish all over the flower beds, but seem to have done little real damage. I cleaned up after their clean-up and picked a lot of broken glass out of the soil.

I keep going over our relationship with Peter and Odi. We saw a lot of them at first, but not so much recently. I actually know very little about them.

Halloween isn't big round here yet, but the Muslim kids will be learning about it at school and off the TV. Last week we saw Nakisha-next-door dressed as a witch.

What you did was a profoundly Christian thing. The Good Samaritan didn't stop to ask who the guy he was picking up out of the dust on the Jericho Road actually was, and neither did you.

Whatever their history, and whatever happens to Peter, Odi and the kids, they will always remember the kind people in England who helped and befriended them, no questions asked.

But if they have to go, I know you will miss them, especially those kids, such a lot.

That's kind of you.

Thanks.
