Artist's Comments

The sound of silence.


Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.

In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.

"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence

And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls."
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.

E' difficile acchiappare un gatto nero in una stanza buia soprattutto quando non c'è. Proverbio Cinese :meditate:

No, è un posto vicinissimo a casa mia, ma in realtà è come se fosse la traccia di un sogno. Amerò per sempre quel 12 Gennaio, amerò per sempre quello scorcio di mare col sole che ci si tuffa dentro!

fai bene....sono così sfuggenti le piccole cose che danno gioia....e siamo noi stessi a distruggerle....a volte!

E' stato un tramonto che è durato solo tre minuti. Sono andata lì in quel posto, ho parcheggiato la macchina e ho avuto tre minuti per spegnere il motore, trovare la posizione, decidere l'angolazione e tutto il resto. Ho scattato cinque foto, sono una più bella dell'altra. Le trovi nella mia gallery, c'è Tramonto in rosso che è la mia preferita in assoluto :).

Simon & Garfunkle - an old favorite. I hardly ever listen to them anymore. Now I have to get a CD :)

A beautiful picture. I am jealous that you can go to such a wonderful place.

Ciao :)
