Notes About The Poem

Friendship

Friendship needs no symbol or vows to make it whole..


 It's just a sacred covenant that's locked within the soul..


 It knows no creed or station or thoughts of gain or fame..


 For what it does is sacred and it's done in friendships name..

Brilliant thought on morals and decency . He that can not properly be a friend has no happiness in life. One must give to be a friend, one must live to love to know happiness. Your aunt had so much and gave back with this poem!!
