The Ocean

The Ocean

As I watched the sun go down
Across the infinite sea
I remembered a face that held me
From deep within a voice
Sail away across the the broken sea
To be a nomad as can be

I held on
Far across the rising moon
A lonely bird
Tt's cries lost across the waves
Made me wonder

I had come too far
To turn back now
I reached out
And watched as it flew across
A barren ocean

Someday...
For the ocean will be forever
As I turned and walked away

The Most Beautiful Sound

The Most Beautiful Sound When you walk with the trees And hear the wind play through the leaves Laughing like little children a secret found That my friend Is the most beautiful sound When you hear your child take its First breath and cry Looking at the deep blue sky With a tear on your lips And a tinkle in your eye When you walk through the green grass Hearing it sigh heavily beneath your feet As the sun softly breaks new ground That my friend Is the most beautiful sound As I walk by the shore Hearing the deep blue sea roar White against the sand and boulder With nothing but the mighty wind To tease and to hold her A mothers song, sweet, lingering Beautiful than a prima donna melody The child sleeps as I walk the street around That my friend Is the most beautiful sound Copyright ©2005 Roopesh Chandra Bose

The Rose

Tom shook the water off his coat as he stepped into the dingy inn. He stared at the falling drops as his steaming coffee arrived. Winter was coming fast and he had to find a job before his reserves ran out. Amid his gloomy thoughts her face came through, laughing and playful. He smiled as he thought of her waiting at home for him. He paid for the coffee and walked out, just as the sun broke through the clouds. Checking his empty pockets he pulled out his last coins. Grinning like a boy, he thought "Just enough to buy a rose". With a spring in his steps, he searched for a flower-shop. He had one more stop to make before he reached home.
