Adieu To Unheard Melodies 26
The Boatman’s Song 26 Last on PS
Rest would be
concluded in the book
This story of the Boatman’s Song is taking a break/stop here,
As enough of its Episodes I have already placed,
On this wonderful sight which we call and know as PoutrySoup.
The love and appreciation which I got from you all
Would linger and glow like a lamp light in my heart
Stories come and stories go
Poems also come flashes on board, illuminate us and one day go
Sometimes they leave an impression on our mind and heart
But often they vanishes like a Tarang*(wave)
Which after rising high and very high
Just mingles in the sea of life, leaving no impressions
As if we never saw them high or low
This is the beauty of life
Which keep on moving without ever stopping
Playing, singing, loving or hating, smiling or laughing
Reading or writing or singing a melody touching our hearts
Or get busy in life without wasting a minutes time
Or waiting and waiting for something to happen
Which sometimes takes place
And often keep us only waiting
But this is how the life moves on?

Note: What happens in the ceremony celebrations on Vasant* at the Kingdom of Malla*
And what happens to the Princess and Urveshi who were in love with the Boatman, who
was actually the young Chandragupta Maurya,* of the Ancient India who ruled between 321
BC to 298 BC under the guidance of his Guru Chanakya*, whose role was the base of
establishing largest ever a kingdom in India and how he married the daughter of Seleucus*
the Greek warrior whom Alexander* had appointed after he left India. Chandragupta
expanded the boundaries of his kingdom up to Iran in West, while coving all most the whole
of current India. He established a Great kingdom and his period is known as the golden
period of India History.
These & many more interesting characters would be things to be covered in the book I am
writing as an epic. The book would also be coving what happens to Urveshi* who was waiting
for the Boatman and how long she stays on earth to see more of his love the Boatman.
