Poetic Photography Exhibition

As a poet my reflection of this exhibition takes me towards the creation of pond …

It begins
As droplets of rain
Drops
Few more drops
Increasing
More and more
Creating a pond


And here we are with Thought Droplets. It started out as just a fleeting thought; but with many helping hands, kind expressions of support, and with concrete help from various quarters, this dream has come true. The unstinting support, and the kindness and generosity of many others truly made this exhibition a success.

My heartfelt apperciation and gratitude to each and everyone who made this exhibtion possible through your suggestions and advice. Your support has made an immense difference

The Myth

We all have to take a stand
In the direction and trials of life
Some of us lean on someone else
Some of us have to face it all alone
Both ways we have to face the struggles of life
Sometimes we even fall in the heaps
Meant to be, there is no escape
At times, certain falls drains out our strength
Standing back becomes a myth
Yet what differentiates one to another is how we take
and face the fall

Within Myslef



Its been awhile since I posted, it was one of those rough waves that pushed me to fall and I continued to struggle to get up and then another wave comes and hits me again. Certainly those waves did not last forever, so here I am regained my strength and courage to stand again.

A word of appreciation to each and everyone who have visited my blog and dropped a hopeful line to make me come back again. It was truly the rays of sunshine that evaporated all the surrounding darkness. Al Hamdullah (Thank God) his blessings I feel them so immensely drizzling on me like rain, when it starts to drizzle awaking the earth and here I’m awake embracing the blessings of God and Im all blessed to be able to witness the beauty of this life. Not all the beauty of earth that puts tears in my eyes, it is the fine spirit of man kind at least to those I had a chance to meet or talk to. I’m truly touched so here a word of thank you to all.

Within Myself

I’m not afraid
Releasing my soul

I’m not ashamed
Letting my tears run

I gained peace
Within myself

And I had witnessed
Journeys of climb and falls

Yet its not mine to tell
Therefore I realized
Others pain

At one time
I was out of faith

Now in my rebirth
I’m enhanced
With enormous faith

Believing in each curves
The granted destiny
Bliss or heartache
Granted in a package of life

Within my inner peace
I’m experiencing it all
Living the days
As it would proceed
