I went to the town museum and found the door closed. Not very happy, I come out from the entrance and my eyes fall on this opened chestnut lying on the floor.
It did bring me back instantly to my childhood park then to the terrace of the house we lived. I played a lot with those beautiful chestnuts and made a lot of things with them, forgetting I was alone.
In fact, no more alone: I was with the chestnuts ! And a knife my father offered me. The acacia tree across the terrace enchanted me with its perfume and the small river behind the tree quietly accompanied with its music.
"Will I go sometime as far as the water in the river goes?"
I arrived a lot farther, with time.
But going back, even if only in my mind's eye, is always a good memory.
