A Poem by Deszo Kosztolanyi

Oak Photography is a freelance photography studio specializing in
capturing the essential moments of life.

I believe in the existance of purity and simplicity in a Bewildering World. In every captured and recorded moment, this is what I'm seeking...

Come, would you be my playmate, what'd you say,
forever eager to join in the game?
To venture in the dark, during the day,
to play at being boss, a famous name,
to lord over it, at the head of the high table,
to fill the glasses with a prudent eye,
to fling your pearls, to prize the merest fable,
to put on shabby clothes, heaving a sigh?

To play at life, at everything, to weather
the autumn rains, the winters, dark and cold,
in silent evenings sipping tea together,
enveloped in the wafting steam of gold?
To live a full life, pure in every heartbeat,
to sit in silence, sometimes terrified,
while poor November, limps along the High Street,
like the roadsweeper, sickly, bleary-eyed,
and whistles, at our rattling window-panes.

Or will you play at birds, at dinosaurs,
at travelling, at trains or aeroplanes,
at dreams, at Christmas Eves or Lucky draws?
Say, would you live forever, in a game
that has become the real thing?
Would you play?
