The First Signs of Friendship!

When we first meet
Our heart is filled
With pleasantness and joy
And a feeling of nearness pervades us
And we are attracted to our prospective friend

The intimacy is formed even before
A single word is spoken
Might be heart knows its mate so instantly

After the meeting
The ideas exchanged and the pleasantness shared
Becomes ours day in and day out

Merely thinking about our friend makes
Our face and heart light up
For friendship and nearness seem to be
Matters of silent attraction and intuitive togetherness

Psychological kinship is reflection of
Tuned minds and shared hearts
But even before speaking a word
How such beautiful bond is formed
Is nature’s pleasant gift to humans

We hear of love at first sight
But friendship at first sight too happens
Are not love and friendship
One and the same?

The pleasantness filled the mind
Right at the moment of first sight
Continues till the joy converts itself
To permanent intimacy
And spreads fragrance of nearness and dearness
For life in the blooming hearts
With mutual admiration and appreciation
And love residing in them as sweet honeys
