Handkerchief

HANDKERCHIEF

I gave you a handkerchief
As a token of  friendship
Without hesitation you accepted it 
 Not to wipe your tears of sadness.

It is  been said
If you accept  that kind of gift
She/He will make you cry
And make you a broken-hearted.

Dispel that superstitious belief
If you perspire, wipe it with that stuff
Pretend  that those are my hands
caressing your beautiful face.

That red, white and blue piece of cloth
Signifies sincerity, purity and  courage
Dignity, integrity and loyalty
In case oblivion prevails, a knocker of your  memory.

Whether  friendship or love 
May it reminds you at one time I passed
And walked in this world’s part
And met , a wonderful and  beautiful lass.
