Friends Are Like Stars

Friends are like stars
Steady, glittery and bright
Embossed perfectly
With their yellow-white
To the black velvet
Of our dreary minds
Adorning them with
Eternal sparkles of light
Inspiring us with their
Deep keen insights -
Each one unique
Of it's own kind;

Friends are like stars
Luminous and lustrous
Radiating rays of hope
When in darkness we grope
As life's harried hassles
Leave us doomed and baffled
Eclipsing the brightness and
Cheeriness of our souls -
Each one glinting
With its warm glow.

An apt analogy of friends to shining stars, shedding light in our dreary nights of darkness! Friends inspire and strengthen our lives. They support and cheer us, helping us in times of need. Beautiful poem, Ani !
