The Sweet Smell Of Ripening Nangka Oh Thou! The Fruit Of The Present The Link To The Past


The Sweet Smell Of Ripening Nangka Oh Thou! The Fruit Of The Present The Link To The Past

Looking out the window, inhaling the sweet smell of ripening nangka (jackfruit) hanging from the tree, I'm transported back to the time of my life when, as a child, time did not matter

The past, the future, existed not

Only the now, the immediacy of the present 

That, and what transpired in the present

A time when yesterday was not

And tomorrow was - but what happened in the moment next 

Just the present existed

The sweet smell of ripening nangka

Oh thou!

The fruit of the present

The link to the past!
