When viewing the side of our yard I could see white trellises, heavily laden with lus cious ' bunches of purple . grapes. Their wonderful fragrance would linger in my mind all through the cold winter Until spring and my next visit here. -. This was tbe last night of my visit tomorrow we would be leaving on our long, tiresome Journey North and leaving behind all the lovelines of little village. Tonight was the end of en "almost perfect visit" Almost perfect but something was jtcking. Just one thing and now I realize what that was, the visit to the village spring. All through these many years the spring had never ceased its original task , of bringing water to the village peo ple. There was also an old histori cal ' story told about this spring which I had waited many years to hear. Last summer my grandmother anally promised to tell me the sto ry during my next visit. How could I have so carelessly forgotten a bout her wonderful promise? I hoped, oh how I hoped, that grand mother would walk with me to the spring tonight and tell me the long promised story.- I- u I shall never, never as long as I 'irve, forget that night The coarse sand which had been so blazing hot earlier In the day now felt cool and soothing to my bare feet. As the moon slowly rose in the darkening sky, the village produced hidden treasures that were Unknown to daytime, with all of its perplexity and confusion.
