The color of homeland

In memory, almost everyone has nostalgia for a countryside full of sunshine, wind and fragrance.

Those were hot summer afternoons, immersed in the fragrant fields of new rice, watching the farmers wearing conical hats working enthusiastically, holding large bundles of golden rice loaded into their carts. The joy shining in the eyes of the women and girls as they occasionally said a few jokes made the sweat in the heat and the hard work seem to lessen, leaving only smiles on their lips and an enthusiastic spirit in the golden season. The adults worked like that, while the children frolicked and played by the river, disturbing the inherent silence of the peaceful countryside.
