243. Friends And Friendship Poem by Dipankar Sadhukhan

Friendship is next to godliness
As it is the bond of two true minds.
Two true hearts whisper to each other
But their words never end.

Friendship is a holy relationship
Between two holy souls
Who work for each other selflessly
With joy even in sorrow.

Two true minds express themselves to each other
To share happiness to increase joy
And sorrow to decrease unhappiness
And the lotus blooms in the garden of true hearts.

True friendship never dies
As it is beyond the reach of Time.
It shines like the Evening star
In the sky of eternity.

Friends are the roses of human beings.
They spread holy fragrance
For each other's souls
And make this earth heaven with it.

Time passes; dynasty gets destructed
But two true friends whisper to each other
Year after year without being tired,
Without being pale and old.

When true friends work for one another
Cruelty, jealousy, enmity escape one by one.
Then this earth becomes heaven
And they're made angels and fairies to spread holy love.
