Friend 2 Poem by hariharans sundaram

FRIEND – 2

Death did tear you away, much against my wish,
After a very short period of just 17 years
Each moment spent with you, I cherish
These memories brims my eyes with tears

The long hours we spent together
The long walks we went with each other
The long talks we had with one another
These memories brims my eyes with tears

The two sweet children you left for me to take care
Their dreams you cared for and helped nurture
Helping them take each step at a time
These memories brims my eyes with tears

The friends and our family miss you my dear
The world you left behind misses you more than ever
They recall the great person you were
These memories brims my eyes with tears

Till we meet again we stay apart
Be the inspiration, you always were, for us
Will complete my period on this earth
That day my eyes will be filled with joyous tears
