A Friend's Death. Poem by Gangadharan nair Pulingat..

A Friend's Death.

Rating: 4.8


An untimely death of a dear friend
Never it is possible to forget
A life long friendship that expected
But death took away the life.

Still memories of the best moments
Parted with the departed friend
Ever it is an asset for a future life
Which the death couldn't take away.

Death, always a winner in the play
Death, always finding its way
Nature entrusted the duty to it
We have to accept the reality in principle.

True friends are hard to come by these days, to find one is very rare. It is really difficult to lose someone so close to you, the memories will stay in your heart forever. Yet, the tears will still flow for them. My heart goes out to you, this poem is a nice tribute to your friend. Thank you for sharing your heart with us. Take care. RoseAnn

Death is a bad reaper often going after unripe fruits. A poignant rendition nicely crafted from the heart with conviction.....
