Peaches

Micheál Burke

When my mother was around ten years old, she and her sisters would play tag, hide and seek and many other games in a field. One day while playing hide and seek, my auntie came across a peach bush. She tasted them and decided to bring them home to my granny and grandad.

Evening was my auntie’s favourite time of the day. After dinner, they would bring home some peaches and eat them. Now my mother often buys peaches from Lidl. My mom doesn’t really like them “It’s just for the memory” she says.
