Cross the Bridge Cautiously - Tercets

To the wings of our dove, there is rosy parity Fated to meet when the light meets the dark Between us there is a bridge of love of solidity As excited, I reached the bridge with hilarity Hovering above me were dark clouds, Hark! My eyes fixed on the other side with sere anxiety. Standing on middle of the bridge with vivacity Over her hamlet saw the firework’s sparks Celebrating a wedding with awesome gaiety. For the moment I thought it to be in her dignity Was ready to burn the bridge between us as a mark But later on learn it wasn’t her wedding in reality. It was a life’s lesson not to burn bridge in adversity Who knows if you burn the bridge in haste and hark You may have to cross it again in your diversity .

As soon as bridges are burned it seems a need arises to traverse the chasm once again... Ashes from bridges burned almost always fall into troubled waters..... Congrats on your win.... Jake

I like the interesting tercet form of this poetry. It's a difficult one to do and you have some good lines in it.
