Ah! It’s the birthday of my First Best Friend, 
And I must wish him, 
But I find my words at a trim, 
I wish that our friendship knows no end. 
We were neighbours once, 
but for us the walls never existed, 
And our families coexisted, 
In you I found a brother, 
And motherly love from your mother, 
To you and your family I will always remain indebted, 
And I wish for a world where our families forever coexisted, 
But alas! Life goes on my friend, 
And I hope our friendship knows no end. 
We shared not just our toys n ploys, plays n ways, 
But, memories of those lovely childhood days, 
Those moments would stay with me forever, 
I was blessed to have a friend so loving and clever, 
I feel, I am now drifting out of trend, 
I wish our friendship knows no end.
A big hug to you and a salute to your mother, 
That’s all I’d say for today my brother, 
But there’s more to say, 
And even more that can’t be said, 
I believe true love and emotions can only be read, 
With this, I wish you all the luck my friend, 
I wish our friendship knows no end…

A lovely tribute to a friend indeed on his birthday, well articulated and nicely penned with lovely rhyme scheme. A friend indeed is almost the equal of a good and happy family. A nice poem indeed. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON
