Shamik Kumar Bose Poems

Moments absorbed in suddenness
remind me of that full Moon in pasture
Her beams of love
strike me unaware;
...

O Prince of Heart!
Inside the gorgeous hearts of Great Moghuls
You reign as an Emperor
Like Badshah Shajahan, your father
...

That stone ossifies in continuous strain
from ages, who knows when
like a mortal blow from the sky or
a dream of death torrids a mortal mind in some prickly pain
...

Two white clouds to mate
a space in between
languishes
lit by moonlight
...

Yet I know, one day I shall be leaving all of you for an unknown
that thought does not put me into turbulence any more
a reflection of the full moon on my well
now lying dead in this cold winter
...

Kishore da,

As I grew up, there has not been a single day when your song did not
give me a pure delight. It did not happen with anything. Things
...

When everybody tells me I am mad
I take no care
when you tell me so
I bring you this world
...

That blue mountain is my best friend
we were born together. same day. same moment.
we came together from one blue dream. from a far far distant blue kingdom.the blue sky only knows.
O blue sky please tell us about it. why are you so silent? why can't you be chirpy like a blue bird?
...

If you have spread your hands like the wings of an Albatross
please continue.. please do not fold them again like a beggar's fulfillment
the waves will descend, will carry you further
further over the jubiliant Ocean
...

I stop where you start.. you know, perhaps just start to know!

When a music ends, I ruminate and you talk
i listen as if i just like to listen, my mind is somewhere
...
