My Friends

a poem by Nadeem Zia G

Life is all, but about friends;
cherishing them with affection, which never ends.

I feel, I am a lucky art;
because my friends are a class apart.

They stood by my downs in life;
never leaving me drown in sorrow of strife.

They laugh when I laugh and cry when I cry;
lest letting my heart go dry.

Their friendship is an honor bestowed upon me;
is a privilege too profound, for a small mortal like me.

The gum of togetherness is our quintessential love;
which is as pure as a chaste dove.

That unbreakable bond which keeps us united;
is always an envy in the jealousy minded.

Deep in my heart there is a little prayer;
Oh Lord! keep this friendship going on forever…
