Dr.Ram Mehta Poet Tercet

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 .

John Posey November 6, 2013 at 8:43 PM 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
