Hi Abanerjee - the ever wise one..and what a story. Why do we do that?? fight over insignificant things and then loose the substance. Sad state and we just don't learn sometimes. Thanks so much for this story and your visit.

I love shadows! and nice write btw 

P.s. about the hotels being closed, yeah I know about that, I also once encountered a similar situation when my family and I were visiting Universal Studios in Orlando, a whole store was closed because a Saudi princess was shopping there, and when the store re-opened the whole merchandising was gone looooooool

superb!
They do talk, and sing and laugh... and sometimes whisper lines of poetry that I later claim were mine :D

posted by lionreign on October 28, 2009 at 8:53 AM | link to this | reply

...and talk they do (sometimes I'm just not entirely sure what language they're speaking  )

Delightful & insightful ! Reminds me of a beautiful old hindi film song....tu jahan jahan chalega tera saaya saath hoga.....tera saaya (where ever you go your shadow will come along,be with you)

Shobana, beautiful thoughts on shadows, here's another

Shadows talk,shadow keep watch, and shadows fly. Long ago a traveler took an ass on hire and traveled through the hot scorching sun of a desert to sell his wares in a distant town. On the way he took refuge in the ass's shadow for protection from heat. The owner, also traveling, claimed the ass's shadow as his and not the traveler's. The traveler claimed that he hired both the ass and its shadow, A fight ensued and they came to blows. And the ASS fled off, hahaha. The moral: quarreling over insignificant things, we invariably lose the substance.

It truly did! It made me want to go in a room somewhere, turn on some music, and dance...anything that can make me want to do that is some good writing.

Hey my Shobana, I will get something out tomorrow! I have another friend that I am critiquing a few poems for now and then I will e-mail some forms! We never stop learning as a poet! The minute we have something mastered there is something else to take its place! Have a great evening! Love you! sam

Re:
Sam - I came in really early around 7.30am cos I had to finish some work and then I got started on my blogging. If ever you feel the need to email me at any given time on anything  - please go right ahead. I will be so happy to hear from you and yes I will be honored to have those forms. I don't have any formal papers on writing poetry sweetie, mine is just what comes to mind. I find that you know so much indepth knowledge onthe different forms of poetry and its many ways of presentation. As I said, I am still learning..a long way to go for sure. Please email me Sam. I'd love to hear from you.

Astonishing, my Shobana! Oh, I want to know how excited you were to post this one tonight! I aver, I can see your smile right now! Congratulations! I have to tell you the greatest story! I had started my comment and I got a call from a friend who was going to help me save my poems to a flash drive. I am slow to get the concept but she got me going and you are the first to know that I have my poetry saved to a flash drive! I am so relieved Sweetie! It is like a fresh breath of mountain air! I managed to find 493 poems so I can't be too upset if I lost some! I will do a check of the printed ones and whatever I have will suffice! I have a poetry book that tells about the different poetry forms and I have written a poem for each form! I was wondering if you might like to get started on the forms. I could e-mail them to you. Some are very fun to write! Love you my dear friend! You sam How was work today?
