Whitman's A Passage To India, Not Foster's Poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

E.M.Foster's not,
Walt Whitman's A Passage To India
Telling of sails, voyages to Indic lands
Flavoured with Orientalism
Mythical and fabulous,
Exotic and impregnable
Which but the soul knows it,
Feels it
How far the land stretched is,
Which but the soul whispers
In prayers,
Transcending the barriers,
The ship sailing far
For inter-relationship of races,
Transcendental vision
And sharing of feeling!
