[nukkad] One more... almost poem

Poetry is a subject as precise as geometry.

Hello 'body,

We often plan stuff on and on without the knowledge of the future. Look, how
'she' tries to satisfy her agitated lover's demands to an answer that lies
in future.

Ah! how it would be; how it would be?
My dear love, will the love be as sweet
as it looks from the river at this end?
And she replies: Sweetheart, you carry on
waging through the waters, what shall come shall come--
it will be sweeter than you contend.


I hope she was right!

By the way, when I came up with the above lines on an ongoing discussion in
future, some one said: I always wanted to be the one who was able to quote
appropriately. I told him that even I wished the same for myself. Indeed,
someday, I will have the knowledge of the book enough to start quoting
others. Till that point, you guys will have to just deal with me!


Pankaj
