that we read each day
across the cyber oceans
touching the heart
of a photographer SJ
through this poem
my thanks I repay
Marziya Shakir
in her heart we stay
for her long life
her future happiness
we fervently pray
of this 18 month old
upcoming photographer
what more can I say
a silver lining on
sky turning gray
its with cats dogs and goats
she loves to play
dedicated to SJ Alexander my Flickr friend

Marziya is a Poem ...
Marziya Let Me Go
you are suffocating me
with your love
marziya
dont you know
shooting my
fragile predicament
your grandfather
flickr pro
haunted fleur de least
has raised her eyebrows
anthony posey from mardi gras
switching to lilting prose
uncle fred miller
is not one of those
though a few of his friends
are new now public foes
wear tight sweatshirt and panty hose
a camera in hand missing person
cousin lefty where he is
no one knows
jeff and leyla
style and fashion
in periodic throes
from dragony flys
photostream
recycled graphics
some awards that flows
wanda brown eyes
in disgust her nose blows
feeding fishes to the crows
new orleans lady
in sadness going
melancholy and morose
holga headed monster
friar tuck
yogically touching his nose
with his toes
these few lines
of pedestrian verse
written by
bollywoods most wanted
firoze
no feasts no hijdas
only bandra blogs
to dispose
more misery bad business
to add to my wolfish woes
Marziya Shakir
From the Doorstep of Princess Fatima
The Daughter of the Holy Prophet
A Blessing as a gift they received
They named her *Marziya Shakir
A drop of a tear of Karbala they retrieved
A living poem from their young love conceived
Asif and Arizah proud parents much relieved
They had Faith and in the fruition of Faith they believed
Dreams that in their togetherness they had weaved
*Marziya is one of the names of Lady Fatima Daughter of the Holy Prophet
Mother of Imam Hassan and Hussain.Wife of Hazrat Ali Ibn Talib.
She was born this morning 5am Nov 24 2007.
As she is barely 2.3 lbs she has been kept in the intensive ward for observation.
This is my eldest son Asif Shakir’s first child.
Asif is a Web Designer.
Today is also Guru Nanak’s birthday.

Marziya Shakir Child Born Of A Camera
182,764 items / 1,444,354 views
Marziya inherited the camera from the second day of her birth, and she toddled crawled walked her way through life the camera was always there as a idiom of her lifes precious moments I shot and shared..
And Marziya is today three and a half years old , she knows the Nikon D80 as she knows herself, she knows how to charge the battery, insert the memory card, insert the card in the card reader and into the computer port.
I had a film roll she wanted to know what it was I explained to her about the analogue camera and the present digital camera , she prefers shooting the streets with the camera on the monopod.. as the Nikon D 80 can be heavy on her her neck for long time.
And these are the earliest pictures of Marziya shot on the Canon G 9 that someone stole from me during Moharam.
