spring preparations -
the sound of bamboo
exploding
The farmers are beginning to clear the bamboo that has grown since last year. They cut it down, make small piles of it in the fields and burn it.
The sound of this poor bamboo cracking and popping --- pang panggg --- sounds like a constant firework explosion through my whole valley.
