Verses From Tagore
LET HIM only see the thorns who has eyes to see the rose.
*
LET MY thoughts come to you, when I am gone, like the afterglow of sunset at the margin of starry silence.
*
YOUR SMILE was the flowers of your own fields, your talk was the rustle of your own mountain pines, but your heart was the woman that we all know.
*
MY FRIEND, your great heart shone with thee sunrise of the East like the snowy summit of a lonely hill in the dawn.
*
I AM LIKE the road in the night listening to the footfalls of its memories in silence.
*
DEAR FRIEND, I feel the silence of your great thoughts of many a deepening eventide on this beach when I listen to these waves.
*
THIS SADNESS of my soul is her bride's veil.
It waits to be lifted in the night.
*
THIS LIFE is the crossing of a sea, where we meet in the same narrow ship.
In death we reach the shore and go to our different worlds.
