Palimed nga Ayat

_________________www.ampitz.blogspot.com
Alsaakon ti inpasusuonko
A sangalaga a bin-i ti nalimed a rikna
Kadagiti agkubkubbon a binatog
Nga ininaw palludip toy puso
Sipud pay damoka a makita,
Ket warwarek ti begketna
A kinatakrot ket pagadiwaraek
Ti nabayag a naullom a banglona.

Wen, ukasek payen kadagiti bituen
Ti inbad-ayko kadakuada a karayo
A pagarupek a matangadmo
Iti kanito a silnagandat’ arubayanmo
Ngem dim’ met gayam narikna
Ti lam-ek nga inpalais ti palayupoy
Isu a siakon ti mangibukibok iti daytoy a bin-i
Tapno pagrusingek iti namnaman’ ragsak
Ket pagsabongek iti napudno nga ayat
Iti nadam-eg nga hardinmo.

Isuronak a Manglipat

___________________www.ampitz.blogspot.com
Mawawakon iti tudo
Ni lipat a mangdepdep
Agap-apoy a saem
Nga in-inot a mangur-uram
Iti natikaganen nga ayat.

Ta saan nga umdas
A pangbisibisko ti lua
A mamaglunit iti rengngat ti puso
Ken mangpalangto manen
Nalaylay a hardinko.

Lipatenkan kunak
Ngem apay nga agbukel lattat alintataom
Iti kada asok nga agasimbuyok
Kadagiti suyaab ti bigbigat
A mangmurmuray kaniak ken ridep.

Photography and poetry alike...

_________________www.ampitz.blogspot.com
Becasue of my love to POETRY and PHOTOGRAPHY I was thinking one day how these two fields are interrelated to each other. Then I came out with this statement, "photography is just like poetry, if a POEM, can depict a beautiful image, then a PICTURE can paint a thousand words, too."

To make them together I came out with a term "POETOGRAPHY "showing POETRY and PHOTOGRAPHY intertwined to each other.

I got some pictures that I took and shared at http://www.photolaureates.com/ and let the viewers and other members review them, just like what we do in http://www.iluko.com/ where we post our poems, short stories and everything under literature and let the readers react and review them with the intention that the artwork will be criticized and the ability of the author will be more developed. Photolaureates have the same goal, too.

Here are some of the pictures and some of the comments they gained from http://www.photolaureates.com/:

Picture Title: Calgary Sunset

Date Submitted: August 30, 2008

My Comment: Sunset in the midst of the summer makes the Calgary City's (Alberta) Western sky so beautiful with its majestic orange color. I'm just very lucky I caught in frame.

Reviewer's Comments:

(1) Great shot. Excellent composition, Excellent sharpness. Excellent tones. Beautiful picture. I would love your opinion on my pictures, thanks -Pavel2426;

(2) very beautiful sunset, i love the varying shades of orange throughout this photo and the sun being slightly off center.marianne - emtee656;

(3) good shot with your exposure to show the profile of the sun.Would like to see whole cloud on left edge frame.Wait a few more minutes and the sun can be resting on the needle from the building. OH NO!.. will the sun Pop? -croc;

(4) You are right about the deep orange glow, I like the halo effect around the sun, nice silhouette of the skyscrapers.Roy6247.... -roy6247;

(5) Beautiful photo Sherwin and welcome to Photo Laureates. Sunset and silohettes are superb. Thanks for sharing.. Lisa -Lisa7586;

(6) very nice shot, love the colors and the city brings everything together. thanks for sharing. Brenda - Brenda1290;

(7) Very nice silhouette of the city. Nice capture of the sun setting. Thanks for sharing. -sasha1389;

(8) I adore orange and was immediately drawn to this lovely shot. So dramatic and beautiful. -D.8723;

(9) great sunset shot. love the colors that you captured along with the silhouette of the city. wonderful work -nikkiggrrl.

Picture Title: The Boat, the Sea and the Kids

Date Submitted: August 31, 2008

My Comment: A lonely boat caught on one of her lonesome moments. If I were only a boat then I would surely give her a company.

Reviewer's Comments:

(1) Nice shot. Empty yet full. Telling a life's story of a family and a boat without saying much at all. Your photo holds a beautiful composition. Thanks for sharing.. Lisa -Lisa 7586;

(2) I like this picture. It is the kind you can make up a story in your head to. Very interesting! -Candace5571;

(3) The kids give the boat a reason to be photographed and add considerable interest to the pix. I too would crop top and bottom, abandoning the "little information" portions of the image, and placing the story as the focal point of a panoramic photo. Dick -Zambezi;

(4) The only improvements I can suggest ito crop from the top and from the bottom to get the boat nearer tio the viewer. It is original and artistic. Nice composition -longaray2.

Picture Title: Reverse Side of Religion

Date Submitted: September 27, 2008

My Comment: Sometimes when the wind blows so hard, even the most firm religion can be blown away and tumbled down. But it doesn’t matter, keep your faith in HIM.

Comments of Reviewer:

(1) This is very interesting. I am notsure how you got it, but this is a great example of being in the right place at the right time. I am not sure if you got it jsut blowing over since there is no wind in the trees in the picture. So HOW? thanks much for sharing and good luck. Cheryl -Cheryl7283;

(2) Boy, could someone have fun making up titles for this (religion on shaky ground, heading for hell, the lighter side of religion, etc.)! Very interesting shot. How is it that the church balanced on its top? Was this built this way just to get attention? The exposure is nice, with blue sky and good clarity. TED -Joseph1875;

(3) interesting sculpture. in what looks almost to be an industrial area. your have some stark lighting on the front but it doesnt detreact from this very interesting portrait. -Connie3107;

(4) This is cool, is it mounted there? Or was it falling over when you took the picture? -Wendy8570;

(5) Wow How . what .when .were .DangitGreat shot please more about this great photoWell done Thanks for sharing -Buddy;

(6) Wow! This really is an interesting shot. How on earth did you encounter such a weird moment!? It really is a nice shot of a candid moment, too bad the church had to get blown away for the shot though. Thanks for sharing. -Jennifer1381.

Hope you somehow see how poetry and photography are interrelated or similar to each other.

Sumeppeg lattat’ makarurrurod
A pul-oy ti lagip ket pairtengenna

Ken sennaay ket kumulbet latta

Ta piliten man a rumeken

Ngem agunnoy met a salugsogan

Ket sennaay lattat’ matda.

Ket uray pay ngata alsong

Ket dinto matumek ti bimmato
A gura ken saem a naitanem.

Wen, surruannak kadi a manglipat
Tapno mayaddang manen dagitoy dapan.

Kaputotan ni Pedro Bucaneg

Maibunubon,
Agrusing ket tumanor latta
Iti minuyongan ti kasaluyotan
Sumarsaruno a kaputotan Ni Pedro Bucaneg.

Ta uray saanton nga agtaraok
Dagiti kawitan iti parbangon
Malukagto latta ni Saluyot
Baet narnekan a turog
Ket idaniwnanto lattat’ kinasaluyotna.

Agbukar a kas maysa a rosas
Iti hardin ti prosa ken literatura
Agsantak ket agadiwara ti banglona
Ket tagibenennanto ti talugading
A tawidna ken Pedro Bucaneg.

Wen, maisarusar latta dagiti bin-i a binatog
Maitukit ket agrusing iti muging dagiti tumantanor a mannaniw.

Sindiak Dagiti Binatog

Sindiak ti kimmandela

A balikas ti kinasiasinok

Silawak ti nasipnget

A dalan agturong masakbayak

Babaen raniag dagiti binatog

Agaon manipud naakkuban

Dakulap nga apoy; saripda

Iti pul-oy ti umsi ken uyaw

A pilit a mangdepdep

Nagangtan a kalikagum

Nga agraniag manipud kasipngetan.

Ket sakbay a marunot

Ti kandela a sinindiak

Ket likmuten manen ti sipnget

Ti aranaar nga inyegko

Sapay ta adda sabali a maaranaaran

Ket agserbi ti plumak

A silaw a mangiturong

Nalinteg a dalan ti biag.

Wen, agserbi met ti daniw

A kandela ti biag.

Awag ti Kinaagdama

Iti panangsapsapulkot’ kaimudingan

Ken kinasiasinok iti daytoy a biag

Naimayengak a nangan-anninaw

Kadagiti nalipatanen a dana

Nga iti naminsan nagnagnaak

Nangted liwliwa ken ragsak kaunggak.

Iti garbo dagiti sabsabong a naimatangak

Nalipatak payen kinapudno ti agdama

Ket nakipagbiagak kadagiti naikupinen a napalabas

Ngem adda maysa a naidumduma nga awag

Nangriing kaniak iti kaltaang ti pannakailibay

Ket inyarasaasna nga awan banagek nga agbibiag

No agbiagak iti anniwan ti naglabas.

Timmangadak iti naarkusan kadagiti bituen

A tangatang ket pinerrengnak ti nakaisem a bulan

Minurmurayannak ti palayupoy ti kinapudno

A nasaysayaat a nanamekon sam-it kinaagdama

Ta adda Mannakabalin a kired ken bagnos

A mangranraniag dalan nga agturong

Iti nasin-aw a masakbayan.

Wen, anninawakto latta ti bubon ti napalabas

Ngem saanakton nga agnaed iti salinongna.

Bubon ti Napalabas

Luktak ti nabayagen a narikpan a bubon ti kalman

Ket ayamuomek ti naullom a sang-aw nalipatanen a bigat

Tan-awak ti nalit-aw a danum ti nalukiben a pinanid

Ket napnuan gagar a tawingek ti nalikudak a panawen

Tapno idigosko iti mawaw unayen ken lagip a derrep.

Ta no kabalinak koma a sukiren

Ti pannagna ti oras ken panawen

Ket pagbannawagek ti init iti bandat’ laud

Tipdek komat’ pannakabilang dagiti tawen;

Ngem aggunay dagiti bigat ken malem

Aglabas dagiti aldaw ken rabii

Ket kas danum ti agus ti panawen

Ket dinto kabalinan a pengdan

A lumned iti barukong ni Apo Daga

Ket sam-it dagiti pasamak ti naglabas

Matawingto laengen iti bubon ti napalabas.

Wen, no kabalinak laeng koma nga igalot

Pannagnat' napardas nga oras ken kanito

Ket pagtalinaedek lattan dagiti imbag ken ragsak

Ngem dumteng met lattat’ danum ti kinapudno

Ket paggunayenna lattat’ ayus ti panawen

Ket di maigawid ti idadateng manen

Sabali a tawen a mangkitikit kinatao

Ket diakton kabaelan pay nga isublit’ kinaubing

No di ket anninawakto lattan iti bubon ti napalabas.

Kenka Dayag ti Hustisya

Kabulon ti puyat, lua, ken sakripisyo
Ti napasnek a kararag nga awan sardayna
Ti puonak tapno innak laeng masirayan
Silap dagiti kampilan ti linteg nga iggem
Ti nasidap a makannawan nga imam;
Ket di mabilang a dangadang linasatko
Maipaneknekko laeng kenkat’ siglat
Tadem ti kampilan met nga armasko
Tapno awatennak nga adipen iti armadam.

Inusarkon ared-ed ti kabaelan ken pigsa
Nagtedteden ti natda a ling-et ken dara
Malasatko laeng desdes a naunday ken nasamek
Agturong kalkalikagumak unay a sadiam
Ket makipagbiagak pagtimbangan ti Hustisya
A petpet ti napudno a kannigid nga imam.

Wen, Dayag ti Hustisya adtoyak kenka nga agruknoy
Ket sapay ta matmatannak kad’ kadagita naabungotan a matam.
