Beautiful poem. Flows really well. As to the context…I don’t know… though I believe Sri Rama was a role model.. the ideal human being..divine and beautiful, I have serious problems with the way He treated Sita, as far as our mythology goes. Makes me wonder…. who is a better partner/companion – The evil usurper (Ravan) who respected and cherished the woman, or the good king (Ram) who pandered to the whims of his subjects rather than uphold that chaste bond of marriage? Or is this just a story spun by male chauvinists, who believed that an abducted woman is ‘impure’ and ought to be punished? GOK!
