Poem to a close friend

Saturday, April 4, 2009

Finally this blog gets the opportunity of getting another post after my first one months back :) I am going to post a poem here on friendship which I read somewhere and liked much. I wrote this to one of my best friends, along with a drawing of hers on the last working day of our college (last day of 9th semseter - 15/9/2007).


Friendship :

Each of us has a hidden place,
Somewhere deep within ourselves,
A place where we go to get away,
To think things through,
To be alone, to be ourselves.


This unique place, where we confront our deepest feelings,
Becomes a storehouse of all our hopes,
All our needs; all our dreams;
And even our unspoken fears.
It encompasses the essence of who we are and what we want to be.



But now and then, whether by chance or by design,
Someone discovers a way into that place we thought was ours alone.
And we allow that person to see, to feel and to share
All the reason, all the uncertainty
And all the emotion we've stored up there.


That person adds new perspective to our hidden realm,
Then quietly settles down in his own corner of our special palace,
Where a bit of himself will stay forever.


And we call that person a FRIEND ...

Friendships are a desirable and essential part of life. Time vanishes when we are amidst our friends. Cherish them !! Hope you like this as well and share amongst your friends. Have a gr8 day !! :)

PS : If someone knows the author of this poem, pls let me know.
