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 Sponsor: Nette Onclaud Contest: Trois Par Huit A Bridge Date Written:May 15, 2014 Written from a picture from online...

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
