మేఘాన్ని చూడగానే భారతీయ కవికి ఏకకాలంలో ప్రేమా, దుఃఖమూ రెండూ కలుగుతాయి. వసంతాన్ని చూసినప్పుడు కలిగే భావనలు ప్రణయోద్దీపభావనలే తప్ప వాటిలో విషాదఛాయలుండవు. కానీ ఆషాఢమేఘం ఏకకాలంలో కవికి ఈ ప్రపంచం పట్ల అలవిమాలిన ప్రేమా, దీన్నుంచి తొలగిపోతున్నాననో, తొలగిపోవాలనో ఏదో ఒక గాఢనిర్వేదమూ, ఒక్కసారే ఆవహిస్తాయి.

Viswanatha-2
గాఢ ఝుంఝా మరుత్తరంగములు కలవు
నీ యెద చలించు మలయాద్రినిభృత వాయు
శీకరార్థము వానినోర్చెదను నేడు
ఆషాడ ప్రథమ దివసం. భారతీయ భావుక కవిపరంపరకు పండగ రోజు. ఈ రోజే ప్రవాసి అయిన ఒక యక్షుడు తన విరహవేదనని ప్రియరాలికి సందేశం పంపడం కోసం మేఘాన్ని ప్రార్థించాడు. ఈ శుభోదయాన విశ్వనాథ ఖండకావ్యాలనుంచి కొన్ని ప్రేమగీతాల్ని మీతో పంచుకుంటున్నాను.
