The Love Story of Kacha and Devayani- 5
Kacha
Yes Devayani
You have made
Those moments
Once again alive in my mind
I very much remember
That it was only after yours strong
And adamant requests
That your father had allowed me
To become his disciple
Because he never wanted
To hurt your feelings
You being his most
Darling daughter. 14
Devayani
And do you have
Any remembrance
Of those sweet moments
When we used to sit for hours
In the soft pleasing Moon lights
On our small straw cushioned boat
Which used to move very slowly
On the milky looking water
Of the lovely River Venu
Every year during the summers. 15
You remember how our boat
Was often touched and stopped
By some of the stems
Of Sarkanda* plants
Which grow mainly
Outside the river line
But some of them
Grow touching the river water
And they grow in abundance
With their white fur like flowers
Waving and welcoming the passerby
Whenever any gush of winds
Kiss their soft fur skins
Then they began to move and dance
To show their inner joys and songs
All along the shores
Of the river Venu
Often fascinating the wayfarers
To watch them
Or to get lost in them
To listen to their Song of Silence
As we were always
Their best natural friends.
Do you remember any of them
Dear Kacha?
