A Constant Friend Poem by Shuaib Saifi

A Constant Friend



The winds can forget to blow,
The present to fade into history,
The rivers and waters to flow,
But I can never forget thee.

Flowers can forget how to bloom,
And death can forget to meet me,
The stars can surrender to gloom,
But I can never forget thee.

The sun can forget to awake,
The mirror to reflect reality,
The bees their sweet honey to make,
But I can never forget thee.
O dear friend, to my life as dear thou art,
As anchor to a wandering heart.
