Beauty is that which attracts your soul, loves to give but asks back for nothing.....a magnificent story poem of vision and imagination. We have forgotten to pay our reverence to beauty of Nature and how it restores peace and joy in us.
Hats off to the flight of imagery that could visualize beauty itself and presented it's embodiment in the form of a nature's nymph residing in jungle as an eternal virgin. Indeed a great classic and thought provoking too.
