Pushpavali - Beloved of the great Indian Poet Kalidas
A naive innocuous man
disregarded even by his wife
out of her vanity as a princess
The only strength for him
proved to be his beloved 'Pushpavali'
A lady with character and will
who took the river of words out of the rocky hill
She transformed a dyslexic 'kali'
to an intelligent Kalidas - true love of pushpavali
and sacrificed her life
to make her love meet his wife
Kalidas renowned as a great poet
but the poem was incomplete yet
His poems were highly praised
unknown to the inspiration
from which they were being raised
Kalidas as a poet was much above
but the very fact is that
behind all this was TRUE LOVE
TRUE LOVE of Pushpavali !
