#Poetry: If You Want To Meet Me… by Jane Aguiar

If you want to meet me, 
then come under the neem tree 
on a moonlit night, 
the moon will be the witness 
of our love 
and the stars 
will be the guests.

If you want to meet me, 
then we will visit the beach 
when there is a quiet night, 
carve our name in the sand 
and give more space 
to our love.

If you want to meet me, 
then meet in the Bom Jesus church, 
we will take an oath of love 
in front of the statue 
of St. Francis Xavier.

If you want to meet me, 
then come and visit me 
by the river, 
tie our hammock 
on the tamarind tree 
and we will soar high 
in the sky.

If  you want to meet me, 
then visit me in the queen's garden, 
there will be the fragrance 
of colourful flowers 
and we will give 
each other our time.

If you want to meet me, 
I will meet you one evening 
wherever you want, 
then you and I 
will always be close
forever.
