For such a small mistake such a severe curse! Innocent and pure hearted Sakundala deserve such a pitiless curse? My heart trembles. With short cute lines... the way you tell stories is excellent.

I like this Rajaram, and what you are doing with that classic form. It is somehat like Coldridge in approach yet has that feel of Rumi. That is not to say that you copy their style, it is the use of a story. I wouldn't like to see this simply as a children's poem, I think there is a lot more going on in this that would otherwise be missed.

Never a dull moment in the life of the beautiful Sakuntala. But I have a feeling that she will not be forgotten either by her king or your interested readers. Great write, Rajaram. Your poetess friend, Sandra
