The poem -- "A Trip down Memory Lane"

                                                                     

I beheld the sea, I beheld greenery,

When the birds were ready to twitter;

The Basilica and its masonry

Fused nature and man forever.

The ceaseless ripples did regale;

So did the purple eve;
Over gloom did mirth prevail;

How I can't believe.

East and West walk hand in hand,

All over the Goan culture;

No one was to reprimand;

What a treasure for the future!

The dangling heads of coconut trees,

Cordially welcomed all;

The heart-soothing marine breeze,

Gave us a loving call.

Although, I could not but depart,

From that picturesque place,

I bear the memory in my heart,

And will do forever and always.
