I have to say..you are a complete all rounder..I dint know you had a great sense of humour too!!😆😆
@ Purvi: Ha ha...
I don't think that I'm an all-rounder...Wish, this could have been the case as far as my cricketing skills are concerned... 😆 as I used to contribute to my team's success being an opening batsman only!!!!! 😆
Guess, this is what Mr. Yeats have to say for me by his poem: Men improve with years...
"I am worn out with dreams,
a weather-worn, marble Triton,
among the streams,
and all day long I look upon this lady's beauty,
as though I had found in a book a pictured beauty,
pleased to have filled the eyes or the discerning ears,
delighted to be wise,
for men improve with years,
and yet, and yet,
is this my dream or truth?
A weather-worn, marble Triton,
among the streams... "
Hope, you'll not get bored by my style of replying you in such a way!!!!! 😃
Shobhit..thats what your name is..I kept reminding myself how I will ask your name the next time I actually get a chance to reply to you, but I guess I was too mesmerized 😉 with your poems and shaayris that I completely forgot about it. You know that you would definitely not bore me with Yeats!! I am sure even though you were just a batsman, you would have been a good one😃. If not then I am sure you are one now, after all, man improve with years!!.😆 (don't tell me you have given up playing cricket too, because of your love for auto-mobile😛).
As far as the above poem goes, this is probably Yeats at his best!! such a reflective piece of work!! "I am worn out with dream" rings bell...as if its my very own experience. It shows how much the poet is lost somewhere, maybe in the truth of life or maybe his dreams..In short...irony with ease..such is life I guess.. !!
Hello Mr Shobit [ not sure if i pronounced it right]... Longtime i am seeing post from you...
Whenever i see your ID, reminds me of that blooper thread we had fun talking about... 😉
First of all, BILAMBITA SUBHO NABABARSHAI liked the above poem... We are the overwhelming minority species active on this forum...😉Good to know you were an opening batsman...I used to perform all roles including WK...Does not matter what you are on the team, as long as u are contributing for the team's cause, matters at the end... Similarly pls continue to contribute to this forum with your posts...Sorry Purvi, to take up your thread... (Mr. Amrish, you are absolutely ok using any of my threads for anything at all. please don't apologise..😊)
Hi Shamrish!
I'm glad to know that you remember my post... 😊
Shamrish, I'm really sorry for sounding so dumb, but I would like to know the meaning of "BILAMBITA SUBHO NABABARSHA" that you mentioned!!!
Is it Bengali????
As far as my contribution to this forum is concerned, I would be more than happy to do so...but don't think that I have even a slightest of the ability to write good posts as other members of this forum like Fariyal, you, Purvi, Shumi, Rani, Tanya & others ( My apologies to the members whom I haven't mentioned as I don't know the names of all the members but what I do know is that all of them are just too good...👏). Shobhit I would like to see more contributions from you to this forum, since I have already concluded that you have a great sense of humour and some humour dosage here and there would not hurt at all😆. you dont need to underplay by saying that you dont have the ability to write a good post. I am sure, you are very well aware of your own talent.
I was very happy on being the silent member of this forum (As I have stopped posting my own threads) but some recent posts by Purvi just compelled me to share my opinion with you all as she actually made the dormant poet in me turn active!!!! 😆. (I think I told you how you don't come across as a amateur poet at all...silence doesn't help when your writings can speak volumes...it would be a pleasure to read your posts and comments. so hang around and be there whenever possible😊)
I just hope that this dormant poet shall be active more often now and post as and when possible. since my posts have compelled you to turn active again, I want to make sure that they keep you active more often😆
