Great Epics: History Or Story? Poem by Ramesh T A

Great Epics: History Or Story?



Classical poets have written great epics that last forever;
Are the epics history or just stories? Many have doubts!
Iliad of Homer, Ramayana of Valmiki and Mahabharata of
Vyasa never look to be stories but real history of the past!

Places and relics of epics take us to those times, bring all
Those great events to our mind's eye and make us believe
Them to be true and still remain fresh in world literature
Making all think about life matters as thought before so...!

I doubt such a thing of great skill can ever be written unless
Willed by the Almighty to think of life ever in those lines sure!
What a marvelous achievement those classical poets have
Done for world men to remember and cherish them ever....!

Writing epics of that kind never seems to be possible to make
Even an attempt whether it is successful or not by anyone....!
