….. the old Banyan tree stands still for who knows how many years,
when my maa (mother) was young - it was still like this.
the curved road along it has changed and so have the people passing by,
new houses are built … new vegetation has grown around.
But the Banyan tree has seen it all … the good and the bad !!

This is such a majestic looking tree. Unfortunately, we don’t have these where I live.
