After a Day's Work
Some describe it as a great irony of modern India. Yet I think there is an old world charm in the farmer's bullock cart slowly rolling back to his village after selling his farm's produce in the market.

ReplyDeleteCiao Jyothy !
More than an irony I would think the cart is the essence of India, connected to the earth in a way that highlights the bond between man and the animal and their place in the scheme of things.
ReplyDeleteBut sometimes, an irony for sure.
Bullock carts, ponies and trap, hand-drawn carts; they all seem incongruous in the cities, less so once you venture into the countryside. Rural India is always good for the soul, unfortunately I ge precious little opportunity to venture there these days.
