the poem talks about the death of my friend


From a funeral

FROM A FUNERAL

================

A sudden call from my native town carrying

a message of my friend's death

We were the close mates of our town

in school,streets and in play grounds

For our bread, we went to east and west

After our meeting at his marriage in my town

another meeting is at the graveyard in his funeral

His face turned to black and dry

I asked my mind, Why?

It replied to me

cause of his expectation of my arrival at his last bed

My absence may made his face

as black and dry

I n his last bed he may desire to see my face atleast

I paid my homage and wept for my loss

A sad poem , when a friend dies , so much shared. Your friend all that you did together will live on as you look back he will be with you , smiling with you . When you call someone friend , then you are saying you live that person.
