Trust and respect are vital in any true friendship. I would add to that loyalty. You chose good words for this naani poem. Good luck in the contest

Hello Poet,

Your Naani is written in four lines and twenty-five syllables, as prescribed by the form itself. You've chosen the subject of friendship, which certainly embraces the human relations aspect. Presented in two colors and without artwork completes the requirements as outlined in the contest guidelines.

I would agree that trust and respect are two extremely important aspects of friendship.

Good luck in the contest.

Kim

    Hi Kim. Many Thanks for your review and comments much appreciated. There are many words to describe a friendship and trust and respect I believe are two key elements and I tried to complete this as a circle of frienship. Cheers for your good luck message.

A clever and well thought out poem.
I love the way each line is linked to the previous line and how it still maintains its flow and meaning.

In just a few words you have demonstrated how important and special true friendship is.

I wish you well in the contest : )

Excellent theme and so true.

With respect, maybe avoid 'respect' repetition and add another level by subbing, 'respect', in 3rd line with, 'in truth'. This also adds alliteration with, 'trust/truth'.

You still have repeated, 'trust' which can be a 'waste' with so few words available, but I think it works here.

Nice one.

Good luck and best wishes, Ray.

    Hi Ray,, Thanks so much for reading and commenting on my poem. With this I have tried to keep the same words repeating as to create the cirle of friendship, I know there are many other words i could have used but it wanted to keep it to these. I do however appreciate your suggestion and please always feel to give them to me. Many Cheers for your good luck wishes

I like the way this work creates a circle, and friendship is often represented by a circle (a friendships ring, clasped hands, etc). This is beautiful. I enjoyed it very much. It has a very nice flow as well.

The words wisdom and truth came to mind as I read your poem. This is a little gem that takes us full circle beginning and ending with friendship.

I loved your excellent naani and wish you well in the contest. I will look out for when the voting starts. Good luck.

Yes, friendship and trust go hand in hand. One cannot experience the depth of true friendship with someone that you do not trust. A Naani with a strong message for us all.
