The city waking up..!

The Flower Sellers

Rushing with their bundles

 

The Milk Vendors

Cycling with their milk cans

 

The Newspaper boys

Sorting out their packets

 

The Morning walkers

Warming up and stretching

 

The Chai-walas

Pouring out their teas

 

The scarfed mill workers

Speeding for their shifts

 

The vegetable vendors

Carrying their head loads

 

The Suprabhatham

Flowing from a distant house

 

The night shift workers

Returning home.

 

The Municipality workers

Cleaning the streets..

 

*The city is waking up

Or did it ever sleep?*
