A Journey of Friendship

A friend is a journey we have to undertake,
Miles of memories started with a simple handshake!
Sweet birthdays to celebrate with a cherry on the cake,
Warmth to share with softness greater than a snowflake :)
Long discussions ... like we were ever awake,
time passed by like sailing in a lake...
And now we are busy with work, a great headache :(
Hope our friendship stays lifelong and never ever break! :D

TRUE FRIEND

True is the saying:-
A friend in need,
Is a friend indeed.
He is the one whom we can trust,
And he comes to help us first.
Having a friend is a must,
But be sure that he is just.
A selfish friend comes and goes in a gust,
The friendship thereafter has no value and changes to dust.
And here I say not to make a mistake,
To join with anyone’s friendship which you feel is fake.
Choose a friend not by his looks,
But choose him definitely if he is good.
A friend will share everything with you,
Your things, your dreams and even your blues.
He can change your character and personality,
He could even shape up your mentality.
On having a friend the feeling is so nice,
Everything appears as cool as ice.
And now its time when I should go,
But be sure what I told, you follow.
In short I should say:-
If I am your true friend,
If you are my true friend,
This will be a great partnership,
Or I may rather say this is a true friendship.




This Poem was written in 2001 when I was studying in 9-A of St. Fidelis College. In the evening time, I was just having some lines going in my mind and thought to scribble up on paper. I sat in the verandah on a chair and just went on with the thoughts. This poem is personally very dear to me as I dedicate this poem to all my "true friends"

NEW COLLEGE, NEW WORLD

Here I come to a whole new place,

The life of college again showers herald;

Good friends and new teachers will surely be a milestone,

All of us will work together and none will feel alone;

It seems life these four years will stay up cool,

Like the tranquil water of a sky blue pool;

The nostalgia of passing 12th is soon gone,

All sadness and boredom is quickly torn;

I hope if we friends will never indulge in fighting,

Then life here will prove to be ever ever exciting.

This was written in very 1st semester of NIEC. This Poem was written as a matter of necessity rather than emotions. Our class teacher Mr. R.N.Tripathi was taking introduction of every student and his/her hobbies too. When my turn came I replied my hobby as poetry. Now he asked me whether I can prove it with an example. So in that class period I was busy completing this one. I payed more attention in this rather than what he taught us in that period. But thankfully It was completed till the end of the lecture.

VANILLA - (dedicated to penfriend)

Vanilla vanilla you are so sweet,

Your chat sounds like a bird's tweet;

You are surely a cutie pie,

And seem to be a pleasure to the eye!;

May your all dreams come true,

And success keep paving the path for you;

Your friendship is surely an honour to me,

But it's an agony that you I cannot see;

Here I send you lot of hugs and kisses for you,

It's for you and just for you!

This one was written on 9/4/07. I don't have any active penfriend(s) except her(vanilla is her nickname). Its not what you are thinking people!, she is just my good friend!! though I admit having crushes over her. It's been really long since I had a chat with her. I was in yahoo chatroom(Those days I thought of giving chat-rooms a try, though I now feel they are the most filthy place on earth) and I guess she was searching a femme friend, when she had an interaction with me and found that I was a boy she tried to flee, but I said that all boys are not spoiled and I think that caught her attention and from then on we are friends. Though there were periods when we had an abeyance of 6 months or so in our talks but we are now still in touch. If I am wrong then correct me van!!

And for those people wondering what are the missed lines ask me directly :)
