ritty patnaik - a friend

when unknown becomes more near
with faith and love we adhere,
strange strangers, give life to hope
trusted become aliens
to our great despair.

a good friend,
stays close to the heart,
even in a foreign land,
a bridge over ocean,
is made in mind,
you can reach out, and
always unwind.

a friend like this
is rare to find,
if you have one,
life is sunshine! !
