Photography with Poetry...
A new friend wrote a poem to one of my photographs. I thought I would share...  Seemingly I walk on it, above water like that man everyone talks about Into the distance, over reflections that get disturbed with every step I take Mirror perfect, until My foot moves Plank for plank, I make it to the end I lean over the edge Past the wood past my feet Over the water, and look down The dock that has no end Much like Me By: Becky Jul 17 06 03:01 am Link It's great when an image can inspire someone to write as well.... As a poet I love that fact.  xDDx Jul 17 06 03:40 am Link Beautiful! I wrote one myself and added it to a pic of my own. You cna check it out on my port.

Jul 17 06 08:16 am Link shes a genius (becky)... I will add some more of her poems Jul 18 06 02:12 am Link  Jul 18 06 03:08 am Link I think Poetry can compliment a piece - help the audience see something inside of the picture that they would have otherwise overlooked, and I often write Poetry to go with pieces of my Artwork. And I think your piece compliments the photo amazingly. But I also think that sometimes It can distract from the piece, kind of making it seem a little trivial in comparison? I don't know... Feline x Jul 19 06 08:56 am Link Check out some of the couplings from my book of photographs and haiku-like verses written for them: http://www.irameyer.com/book.html Jul 19 06 10:27 am Link lovely image...inspired a quick ''ad lib'' song - probably rock, with screaming, and guitars v1 "You took me EMPTY you R the One - took me far away out to a desert flooded with tears if you are the landing i wait for you here v2 did heaven see us we saw a dream? took us far away secret delightful... EMPTY remote and distant nothing to say CHORUS nothing to say want to run, run away nothing to say? middle 8 why so silent you know it all running on empty, leading to my fall lake of my tears wide as the sky tell us why? wide as the sky v3 you left me EMPTY you were the One - dissapreared passed the ripples lines of dellusion I am still hoping i watch for you yeah CHORUS nothing to say want to run, run away nothing to say" MORE AD LIBS... copyright... Anjel!! thanks for the image Jul 20 06 03:14 am Link Another poem by Becky  Bleak and Dreary My soul grows weary As the clouds overpower the powder blue sky Sun rays once blinding Now tactfully hiding Out of sight from my eyes Darkness floods my surroundings A familiar feeling creeps up on me creating chills chain reactive from my neck to my toes I can feel it in the air It is about to pour I close my eyes to heighten my senses The smell of the rain The way the wind plays on my finger tips The sweet moistness of the air teasing my lips As I listen closely.... I can hear the calm before the storm Jul 23 06 06:26 pm Link  The light spring breeze caresses the trees bringing about that oh so familiar scent of sweetness- new blossoms, a tell tale sign the cold will stay at bay For a few months anyway The speing breeze is musical a rhythm playing so sweetly as it blows through the new blossoms across the field in my hair and over my smile.... Eyes closed, the sun still warms my eyelids letting me know it's there. I am glad. Going out on a limb never felt this good by : becky Jul 23 06 06:56 pm Link |
