Friendship


 
Friendship is love,
Without friendship love means nothing!
Without friendship love is empty…
Without friendship love is boring...!
 
Friendship means sharing…
People learn to share from friendship,
Share everything they have in life,

Friendship is like stars,
Even though we always see them together
Always mean to each other…
But,
Sometimes they argue!

Friendship is like flower,
Soft but strong!
Friendship is like sun,
Bright and beautiful!

Friendship is everything in life,
Life without friendship is like life without air…
Life without friendship is like eats without food
And
Life without friendship is like body without soul…

Friendship is wide!
Anybody can be our friend,
Our parents, our grandparents, our sister, our brother, our school principal!
and even our followers and subscribers.   I miss you all and sorry that I've been away
for such a long time.

Friendship….

Is everything!
