I was waiting for the bus on the road in Hyderabad.
Even though it was September, the heat and humidity were making their presence felt.
The road was crowded.
And I saw him.
The stall was clean and well arranged. He was using paper glasses and there was a garbage bin to throw those.
Initially he was engrossed in serving the customers. Slowly the crowd disappeared.
He realized that I was taking his photograph.
A minute of leisure for him - because the next moment another customer arrived on the scene.
I wanted to ask many questions about his occupation.
Maybe, next time.

ReplyDeleteExperiences in life
ReplyDeleteare like sugarcane;
some straight,
sometimes in pieces,
some slightly crooked,
and all stacked together
in the mind.
You choose
some,
and push them through
the mind mill,
churning your thoughts.
Some pleasing sweet results
shared in a glass
with friends,
and
some
thrown away,
presumed useless,
but possibly of use
somewhere
in making learning bricks,
tough with fibre.
If we only learn to churn.....

ReplyDeleteLovely capture. But now I must leave to find myself a glass of freshly squeezed sugarcane juice :-)
ReplyDeleteSudhagee, :-) if you are from Hyderabad, you will find the juice in front of RBI building!
ReplyDeleteNice picture. I'll try to go there, next month I'll be visiting Hyderabad
ReplyDeleteHe is opposite RBI building - near 'Birla Mandir'. However, I have not tested the juice :-)
