The Rainy Season
Author's Note; I chose to focus on this chapter because of the part of Rama's Laments. I am hoping to write stories that highlight the relationship of Rama and Sita that will make for comedy in couples therapy. I know how the story ends for these two, so for Rama to feel this deeply for Sita is beautiful. I wish I could write poetry as beautifully done as is here in the lament, but I don't think I can pull it off. I think I will try to stick to using a satirical tone, and remember to use some dialogue while sticking to the story of what Rama is sharing about missing Sita so much.
This part kills me:
One thought consoles my worst distress;
Through this I live: I cannot die
While she lies down in loveliness
Upon the self-same earth as I.
Swoon.
