Stand by me

September 26th, 2004  |  Published in Photography  |  21 Comments

If I was a poet, I would have writ­ten a haiku to go with this tree that really caught my fancy dur­ing my Nandi Hills trip. I found some lyrics instead:

    “When the night has come
    And the land is dark
    And the moon is the only light we see
    No, I won’t be afraid
    Oh, I won’t be afraid
    Just as long as you stand
    Stand by me…”

    I won’t cry, I won’t cry

    No, I won’t shed a tear

    Just as long as you stand

    Stand by me

    Hi Anita:

    This pic­ture itself is a poem.

    I came across this site by chance

    I also looked at the pho­tos found in ‘The The world through my viewfinder’ …

    You have an amaz­ing tal­ent and you will make a great phoog­ra­pher (if not already..) and may hold exhi­bi­tions worldwide..

    Keep up the great work

    Thank You

    Thanks Numb and Mehak :)

    Ganesh: Thanks a lot for the com­pli­ment! And I can assure you that I have a long long way to go before that :) Actu­ally, I’m really keen to con­tinue my paint­ing too, and right now both the hob­bies are fight­ing for atten­tion and I know I can’t pur­sue both of them with the same level of intensity!

    Thanks Shobha!

    That’s a nice snap… I can’t help myself remem­ber­ing these words…

    A poem worth a life

    Of a few words, unsaid

    A few lines, undrawn

    A sin­gle dot, unmarked.

    Writ­ten by a tree

    At the crack of dawn

    I shall sing it my remain­ing life.

    It reads even bet­ter in Marathi, the lan­guage it was orig­i­nally writ­ten in…

    madame fran­cois,

    it eej “if i were” not “if i was”. even mamzelle dupont would be able to tell you that it is so.

    time to re-read the panda book again, eh?

    Sahil: Lovely words! I am sure it would sound even bet­ter in Marathi.

    Ess­Bee: Must say I didn’t under­stand your comment!

    You are welcome…As it hap­pens many times a few are gifted with spon­ta­neous cre­ativ­ity of expres­sion in a many dif­fer­ent ways (Pho­tog­ra­phy , Paint­ing , Writ­ing ).. How about post­ing one/ few of your painting(s) for our view­ing plea­sure, when you find some free time.

    Hi Anita,

    Cheers

    Thanks Chi­rayu, the pic­ture is mine. But not the poem :)Unfor­tu­nately, poems are some­thing I have not been par­tic­u­larly good at. I have made sev­eral sad attempts in the past but realised its not my cuppa tea!

    Anita: Got a chance to browse thru the art gallery …the sooth­ing col­ors of autumn, bas­ket of flow­ers, sun­set or sun­rise and fresh veg­gie look ter­rific. Although I am not very knowl­edge­able with tech­ni­cal aspects of paint­ing and col­ors, still I am happy that I could appre­ci­ate nice painting(s)…

    I also read some of your arti­cles writ­ten in red­iff and like your sense of humor and writ­ing style. (Sim­ple and direct)…Guess what… I have decided to book­mark your page and visit them again.

    Any­one can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right per­son, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right pur­pose and in the right way — that is not easy.
