a friend

A FRIEND IS LIKE A CANDLE
WHO TEACHES US TO BRIGHTLY BURN
WITHOUT HIM WE ARE LIKE ICE CREAM WITHOUT A CONE
AND EARTH WITHOUT THE SUN

HE HIGHLIGHTS OUR MISTAKES
AND HELPS IN IMPROVING THEM
HE SCOLDS WHEN WE TELL LIES
AND ON PLAYING A FOUL GAME


A FRIEND FILLS UP A DULL LIFE WITH LIGHT
AND ASKS US TO LOOK ON THE POSITIVE SIDE OF LIFE
WHEN WITH HIM OUR FACES ARE HAPPY AND BRIGHT
AND TO RECTIFY OUR MISTAKES ALWAYS GIVES US ANOTHER CHANCE

A FRIEND TAKES CALL WHETHER IT IS LATE AT NIGHT
OR EARLY IN THE MORNING
WHEN TO TAKE CALLS THE TIME IS NOT RIGHT
HE STILL TAKE THEM PLEASANTLY AND SMILING

IT IS DIFFICULT TO IMAGINE A LIFE WITHOUT HIM
HE IS LIKE AN ADDICTION JUST LIKE CELLS OR INTERNET
HE IS AS NECESSARY AS FOR A BABY THE PRAM
AND A LOT MORE THAN WHAT I CAN INTERPRET
