Analysis of Friendship
Amrit pal Kaur 1986 (Punjab)
True friends are like diamonds,
Costly Rich and rare.
False friends are like autumn leaves,
Found everywhere.
There are many ships,
Big ships,
Small ships.
But there is no ship, like friendship.
Speech is silver,
Silence is gold
Friendship is the thing,
That never can be sold.
