An Ode To A Friend Poem by Matloob Bokhari

AN ODE TO A FRIEND
When I looked outside the window
I saw a lady sweet and fair
She was the most beautiful flower of the dale
Which delighted my eyes, pleased my soul
Her colour was brighter than the moon
With a milky divine face
And pearly pink cheeks
Delicious rosy lips
She was strolling on the grass with angelic grace
Winged air was playing with her long hair
With her, lilies were dancing, roses were smiling
Seeing her, I lost all my words to express
If I may live a thousand lives
Or wander in all the seven continents
I may not find a friend like her
Even in my very soft dream
O my friend!
Your beauty has written lyrics on my soul
Which no pen has written ever on a leaf.
