Blessings of friendship

He came from nowhere

found a dwelling somewhere

in my heart

all started with a petty quarrel

realised and reconciled

thereafter no turning back

 

all high fly friendship

not just the room we shared

sorrow more than the joy

his fragrant smile

perfumed my soul

1by2 for the dessert

2in 1 thoughts and views

extended its wings

embraced our parents and children

decades frinedship flag held high

others to envy and sigh

colourful petals added every day

to bind the friendship flower allday

he is GOD’S  gift I cherished

nature has its way

petals whithered

flowers vanished

shutting the doors of friendship

alas one day

he “is” not to be

presnet only in the past tense “was”

befor the sunset

mortal remains put to rest

 

GOD has taken back the gift to be with HIM

sure the body and soul departed

left the sweet reminiscences

in the habitat at my heart

for me to cherish

and guide me to eternity

Your poem is very sensitive and indeed carries feelings, so true in life for probably everybody who loses a good friend. It brought back to me, intensely profound remembrance of a very dear, very similar, very loving, close friend of mine who unfortunately I have lost just 4 months back . It is as if you have written this poem for me on my friend, paying him a wonderful tribute. Thank you so very much…
