BRIDGES

Whether to cross a wide river or gorge,

Or some symbolic abyss of our lives,

We all build bridges

From dreams to realities

Looking beyond what we see with our eyes.

 

There is strength in a bridge;

A power unspoken;

A built-in resolve to inhabit the land,

To cross over boundaries and

Seek out new faces and places

So that we might understand

All of life's little secrets

Lying just "over there";

Just over the harbor, beyond the divide.

We keep building bridges,

Seeking her treasures,

Until mother Earth has no more to hide.
