On the stream of life <br />May the boat of radiant smiles sail <br />In the depths of the tuneful mind <br />May the rays of friendship bloom <br /> <br />May the lamp of love blaze <br />In the hatred filled hearts <br />May the ecstasy of love unfurl <br />On the expansive sea of friendship <br /> <br />May the days roll on <br />In the relentless pursuit of truth <br />Desist inflicting pain on others <br />People then come closing up in ranks <br />And there sprouts, the magic of Friendship!<br /><br />Rekha Mandagere<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/growth-of-friendship/
