Rama returns.
Valiant,
after fourteen years of
loss
pain
war
victory
gain.
His subjects throng the streets.
Fireworks alight the magical night.
Voices sing; they welcome
their heroic King.
Sita follows.
Devoted spouse
keeper of house
Trapped
Kidnapped
Resisting
the demon king,
Ravana
from ravaging.
Laxman
Ideal younger brother
Who took to the forest
to accompany Rama
to protect Sita
to numb the pain
to fight the evil
to devise the plans
And
rescue her from Ravana's hands.
His wife, Urmila
looks on from the balcony
at her husband who left fourteen years ago
Abandoned her for the sake of his brother
What words will he have
when they meet at last
behind closed doors?
She looks at the trio
They belong together
And will always be
Rama Sita Laxman
She will not be mentioned in their history.
Very, very nice!
