At the Footbridge

At the footbridge above fresh fallen snow Lovers stood once, opened hearts in silence The fates led them here from a first hello Beneath sunset that was in compliance A weathered gray bridge, this memory kept New promises woven by tethered hearts Though years have passed by time windswept They stand again on the bridge, gray sweethearts They'll wait the moment when the sun will set To honor their first kiss from long ago A footbridge crossing time turns a silhouette To embrace a memory they both know Two lovers, a kiss, a sunset aglow At the footbridge above fresh fallen snow contest At the Footbridge 7/25/16

Congratulations. I like the flow and the continuity. 'Two lovers, a kiss, and a sunset aglow'. The sunset of age and the ongoing sunrise of togetherness. A worthy winner.
