Sara Kendrick Poet Verse

Bridge Rising

Antique bridge
Rickety, weathered niche
Time has aged and battered each gray board
How the elements' fury each crevice explored
Impossible its beauty to now be restored
As the waters rage around pilings
Waves lift timbers lashing
Bridge Rising

Earl Schumacker May 16, 2014 at 6:10 PM Hi Sara, Very solid poem here. You can feel the bridge rising. I wanted to thank you Sara for your kind words re: Love From Above. I could not respond in the conventional manner due to a computer glitch. Good luck and continued success with your poems. Have a great day. Earl
