Friends Forever

Pulls you out of the pickle,

Helps you to mingle, 

Takes in all your secrets,

Makes sure you don't have any regrets,

Shares the special news, 

Hears out your views, 

Scrubs off the pain, 

For happiness to remain, 

First choice for a shopping spree,

Reminds you not all goodies are free, 

Remembers you years down the line, 

Messages instead of letters are just fine, 

Gauges your mind with the tone of the voice,

Knows when and how to plan a surprise, 

A permanent feature of your lively hood,

Need not be from childhood,

Here's to the forever friends brood,

Who walked into my life in adult hood,

May the bonds surpass days of lock down pile,

Across states, countries and many a mile.

Happy Friendship Day
