IN GRATITUDE!!!

ABSTRACT
Labeled as the social animal, man longs for relationships. Despite the fact that the modern world, dressed in its
advancements, has brought many comforts to man, the true solace can be attained only through the close associate. Relations
have reservations but the one with no bounds and limitations is friendship. A true friend is one who brings a ray of hope in to
your world when you are lost in the chaotic world. It is he who will have the real faith in you and showers the pure love as a
mother and opens the world of happiness and success for you. He also plays the role of a father who always makes you feel
special with his presence and sharpens your ingenuity by resisting your waffling behavior, never trying to point out your
mischievous deeds by bestowing on you the unconditional support. He is the one with whom you share most of your fanciful
thoughts and experience yowling feats. The warm bondage that bosomed reminds of the kinsperson who always embraces you
in traumas and puts up your self-reliance. This poem is an attempt to pay tribute to one such great friend.
KEYWORDS: Friend, Blessed, Hope, Chaotic, Faith, Cordage

Poetic Contents
While tramping quietly in to the green woodlot
Strolled up in a platoon a myriad of thought
Mislaid in the world of overhauls and onuses
Thou my friend as a glitz of hope set foot in to my chaotic cosmos

In the current reality when myself was throbbing with endless queries
Thou dredged up the innate self with unwavering faith in my faculties
Your fragments of pure love as a mother gave vent to my residual happiness
Chiseling and fabricating my consciences thus opening the doorway of my eminence

As a father thou showered on me the unconditional brace

Never did thou shell out a discordant argot to my impish ways

Fostered in nourishing the ingenuity enduring my waffling demeanor
Evinced that I am Special by your perennial presence as a monsignor

Seasoned with thou the obstreperous feats and the whimsical ebullience
A constant motivator who taught to bounce back in life with grit and patience
In my pursuit to be the best thou embraced me in all my trials and desolations
The warm cordage that out bloomed between us advocates kinsperson

Blessed with an incredible opportunity to have a pal as thou

My gratitude is no bound to size and time towards thou
To let go what I can't change, to enjoy life taught me thou
Happy I am in your presence than myself forever and now

What can I offer you except the safest and permanent niche in the abode of my heart!!!

CONCLUSIONS
There are situations in human life that make us feel drifted and left alone. The drifted and defeated can find a hope
through this poem, that there is something or someone who will be there at your rescue and will do it unconditionally.
Gratitude to my friend is not bound to size and time. All the innate feelings of thoughtfulness expressed through this poem
are explicit. However, the most inimitable gesture of gratitude to my friend is a permanent and exclusive abode in my heart
forever.
