It is a poem seems to have been written from the heart and presented in a way to conquer the world........ pain taking but with a firm mind written... thank you for your kind sharing the history too. certainly marks will not suffice the poem..

A wonderful poem with colonial background. A bit ironic as well.

Wonderfully composed beautiful poem. Added 10 with it.

Very interesting poem Saadt....captures a lot of the hidden aura of Goa...10 from me

This is very interesting, including, of course, the explanation. The poem very well written indeed. Ruthy

Good one. A bit obscure without the explanation you give, but the main thing is, it paints a vivid picture of a lot of scenes making up a colourful canvas, as it were. It was particularly interesting for me since my wife is Konkani, though from the Mangalore area rather than Goa.

Very interesting, thanx.
