Friendship Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

A real friend is near and always in our need
The real friend never makes us in trouble
Dear one among the friends comes for our service
when it needs but also when we never asks
He will know our needs in time and act.

A friend must be wise, and gentle with lot of love
Not in terms of power, wealth and education
But pure love and service to the friend in need
He will be a perfect friend at all times

Trust our friends always but still keep a gap
Not out of mistrust but for the prolonging friendship
Dealings between friends must be cautioned
Since money is such a thing making quarrels.

Two friends in joint business travelling in a forest
They found a treasure in the Bamboo forest
Which was already opted out by a wise one
To get the treasure in full each planned his own ways.

Meals they carried but water was not
One sent for the drinking water from the springs
The other one took one share of meal and poisoned
The first one bought a weapon of sharpened stone

The first one killed the second one without kindness
Afterwards he took the meals the poisoned portion
The story is that both of them died in the spot
Here lies the point of friendship up to which we follow
Certain experience of friendship will be vital for thought.

Still friendship is a wonderful thing in the earth
Only trustful friends will reach for our help and safety.
