Ode to an Unknown Friend

Yesterday I came across 'Dream'
It was so real and delight,
As the day was very bright.
I wish, for life it continues to stream……!

Yesterday I came across ‘ Surprise'
It was so sudden and fine,
Unforgettable experience of mine
That, still I cannot believe my eyes……!

Yesterday I came across ‘ Friendship'
It was so friendly though unknown,
Like, for ages together I have flown.
I wish, (it to be)a never ending flight of kinship…..!

Yesterday I came across ‘Love'
So unconditional and kind,
That left each bond behind.
To keep close forever, seems to behove….!

Yesterday I came across the ‘ Truth'
It was so clear like day light
That ‘love can solve any fight'
I wish, all could love to remove any ruth….!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Yesterday I received a message from an unknown friend. (If we know someone by just name is practically unknown.)I was so surprised and also very happy to receive it that just I know. Replied that message and invited to become a facebook friend. Later I received a request on messenger and had a long long chat. I learnt so many things with this unforgettable incident. Loving some unknown person is really an exciting experience. I hope our friendship will live longer than life.Here in this poem I have described what I felt after that mesmerism was over and I have described...as incarnation of...Dream, Surprise, Friendship, Love and Truth. I wish all the happiness of life to that dear friend for giving me such an inexplicable treasure of pleasure. Stay always blessed.

Apart from the unique experience, let me say something about the way this poem is writ. I liked the way the first line is repeated except for one new word, and then completing the rhyming quatrain around it. Marvellous, dear poet, top marks
