Connecting the River Bends

We were two souls separated by a wide river, and to cut the distance we needed to build a footbridge enhancing the green landscape; that would have been our wonderful dream to meet on the wooden bridge and watch each evening a rose-tinted sunset so unique! And the hummingbirds would come to build their nests in the ever-green shrubs and bushes, dandelions and daises would grow on each bend; gorgeous butterflies lured by them would float on the whitest cherry trees that bees would love by greeting spring with their intense scent dispersing! Even night would seem more realistic to the eyes, there would be stars and fireflies; Earth would become a scintillating scene which would have nothing to envy the endless Heavens so distant and fading from view... as the glowing sunrise would turn into a refulgent light showing once again the walkaway of the footbridge! Then a multitude of larks would take flight shrilling, we would look up and see how happy they are! When Man protects Nature and embellishes it, true harmony is heard in mountains, hills and valleys, no creature needs to fear anything, but roam freely; and us enthralled by this vision, walk home serenely.
