Platonic Relationships

The bonding of trust
to a friend without desires
someone to turn to
emotion free yet sincere,
two logical minds at peace

That sums it up very nicely, Harry. Great Tanka...but are we ever emotion free? Sometimes emotions are kept in check. What do I know? Lovely indeed. Hugs
