An Ode to Friendship
An absurd but special relationship
Alone in a crowded school bus,
The girl’s educational journey began thus.
Out of the house and away from loved ones for the first time,
She was scared and nervous about this new climb.
The school gates opened for her a treasure new,
The world and its people she slowly came to knew.
The classrooms and the teachers she started to like more and more,
However, in the friend's department, she was still to score.
Reading and studying most of the time,
She hardly to anyone said a word,
Soon she became labelled
As the teacher’s pet and a nerd.
Things changed when she saw,
A new face one day.
An empty seat on the school bus,
started a friendship that would go a long way.
Though both were poles apart,
They were always seen together.
One the class topper, the other a prankster,
The friendship truly became for them, an anchor.
