A Poem Dedicated to My Friends
As of yesterday I have been privileged to exist on this planet in the present form for a quarter century. Thinking about it humbles me as the blessings that I have received are far more than what I deserve.
I realize that this life is a shared experience and I am thankful for the experiences that YOU (my friends, family and adversaries) have shared with me. So to thank you for sharing your life with me, here is a short poem dedicated to YOU.
My Friends,
We may have just met on a train,
we may have known each other so long;
we may have jumped into the sea,
we may have scaled walls and trees;
we may have had coffee or tea,
we may have had food to die for;
we may have talked over drinks,
We may have walked in the rain;
we may have cheered for a team,
we may have filmed a scene;
we may have negotiated deals,
we may have inspired dreams ;
we have have written words of love,
we may have pondered the meaning of life;
we may have failed miserably,
we may have done impossible things;
we may have had terrible dates,
we may have had romantic nights;
we may have had magical moments,
we may have caused the other shame;
we may have longed to be together,
we may have avoided each other;
we may have hurt each other,
we may have shared a tear or two;
we may have made love,
we may have kissed;
we may have marveled at it all,
we may have parted before it is time;
no matter where, when or how we met,
You are now a part of me;
I thank You with all my heart,
for what we shared has made me whole.
