I won't mention the tuft of grass.
Don't want to risk tears.
Maybe you'll speak about the scorched brown Australian earth, how it's so warm at night under your feet, how you're getting used to the lizards now, how you're no longer alarmed when they scale up the wall in the back garden of your rented home or appear from under leaves by the shrubs at your front door.
I'll ask if you're still hoping to find a platypus in the streams or rivers when you're out hiking.
You'll tell me again about your neighbour's noisy cockatoo, who repeats swear words in an English accent.
I'll tell you who from the village drove up to Dublin yesterday for the match, making a weekend of it, and which ones left this morning, who sat in the back and who ended up as the designated driver.
You'll enjoy all that news.
Maybe I'll even open the hall door so you'll hear the blend of engines and shifting sounds, the flow and friction of tyres against the surface of the road.
I'll tell you about the battle to get tickets.
Which of your cousins are going to the Cusack stand?
Who managed to get tickets together for the Nally?
And sure, I might make you laugh and make you guess, who it is has a spare Hill 16 ticket tucked away in his back pocket, just in case he meets Leamy from Westport, who might need a ticket, the fellow who went to school in Tuam with a few Kerry lads, back in the day.
Then it will be time for our leave-taking.
I will hear the vocal cues.
It'll be just a few small wavers in your voice.
I'll hear the pitch change.
Softer.
You'll say, So, let's talk soon, ma'am.
And I'll say, Take care of yourself.
Enjoy the match.
