Simon Roshan Poem
On a path that I thought will lead me nowhere was were my foot stood a path of darkness yet could I feel the cool breeze over me
For every stumbling block I fell there was someone to tell not so close, yet could I hear a sound behind the woods on the other side
A sound so faint to my ears but loud to my heart when I broke down half way through and when I thought there was no way ahead
For every trouble that I caused could I hear a roar but with a heart of love to lead me on the right path
For every where I stopped t’was the sound that made me move on o, I wished I had taken the other path where travelers meet and be happy later did I know they were people chasing the wind but the path I took was led by a special one to lead me towards the stars that twinkle
Wished I saw the end soon but it was kept behind for me to believe soon will I reach as long as I follow the sound behind the woods

Simon Roshan Poem
Where is the shelter for thy drowning heart
Refuge from the stromy winds
That strive to havoc thy life and depart
Where is rest from the unceasing pain
When all thy strength has ceased
And all thine efforts ends up in vain
When darkness surrounds thee
And there is no way ahead to see
When thy hopes are wrecked
Leaving thy souls out of deck
Where do thyself go??
Lo,there stands a man with arms open wide
"all ye people with burden and heavy laden come unto me I will give you rest" says he
Where there is peace on his side
O what comforting father is he
A light in the darkness
For thine eye to see
Place thy life on thee
For he is God,
For thou'st want him to be

Simon Roshan Poem
A land far far away
With its great splendid
The daylight that brightens the way
Thrived passing all the dry seasons
Nothing,but a tree on the wayside
Had brought significance to the land
Deep beneath the soil it's roots abide
Stands tall for people to see
A shelter to the birds of the air
And the beast of the earth
Moreover the storms did it bear
Lo,there it stands unstirred
There on the roots sprouted a plant
Yet,nothing could ever see
Grew with water so scant
But ungrugitate the wealth of the tree
For all the stroams that hit
And floods that made it drowned
Was it safe under it
It grew and grew
Not long did it last
Soon was the tree cut
Left alone weeping in the dust
Laid the plant
O what happy days under the sun did it think
Had it become to late to realize
There lying dead,the young plant

Simon Roshan Poem
Away in a manger, wrapped in cloth was a baby no one knew who he was may be, yet a star showed him, who he was the shepherd worshiped the savior the wise man bowed down, not knowing who they were naturally
Herod tried to kill him not knowing his time has not yet come the prophet prophesied the sovereign god the child jumped not knowing it was in a womb surrounded
As he passed the street the blind saw, the lame walked the deaf heard and praised god, the leaper was cleansed there was not one stone left unturned people tried to derail him from the cross but it was us in his heart
The soldiers tried to wound him not knowing it is for their wounds to be healed they put a crown of thorns on him not knowing it is for their curses removed they nailed him on the cross not knowing it is for them to be free they put him in the tomb not knowing he will raise on the third day most of all they thought they had defeated him not knowing they have just paved way for his victory
O ,lord how can I thank you what can I give you I consecrate my life to you oh what love that forgives betrayed yet with a smile he said love you my child

Simon Roshan Poem
At the break of dawn I looked for you I found you no where never could I hear a voice, I usually do that which earlier made me smile, unaware
I cried out loud
Never did I hear an echo
Among'st the pushing crowd
That made my voice but, low
I need you now, I sadly declare
Where do I find you?
In all my darkest hour I had your care
It is paining now knowing you are not there
Hope you come back before I ascend
And eternity aligns
For in you I have a friend
An unchanging friend of mine

Simon Roshan Poem
Like a storm that sweeps away the living
rain that drowns the people of giving
What is life only dust in the air
And people left in despair
A life so free but bound in heart
Was once overwhelmed with happiness
Where is the city?
Which was ones large and grand
Oh what city of great splendid
that now lays In ruins extended
Dark and gloomy days that Cover the city
As people are watching their loved ones return
A city of great music
Now lays sobbing under the dust
Nothing but darkness that surrounds
And people alive but as corpse lying everywhere
oh what gloomy days are we in
people raging among themselves
that we have destroyed the city by ourselves

Simon Roshan Poem
In the days brightened hour,came thee with a halo around,came here to be A thousand praises to the heavens did I sing Making me fly by her wing
With hearts overwhelming joy did I fly On top of the mountains so, high all the tears that rolled down, fear that crept in Faded away on flying with my hearts twin
Her voice could I ever hear Like a sound of a million harp To this dying heart so dear
All the days were joyous and fine No darkness but heavenly shine
Its time said she and disappeared in to the skies so wide my heart taken back by the tide Of fear,never returned back Both the angel and I
