The Fieldstone Bridge

The resonance of ages past hides in the old fieldstone bridge; echoes of lives lived long ago rides upon the ethers just above the creek water, that flows to winding rivers and beyond. Moss spreads its young roots where ancestors walked, the foliage masks the ghosts of lovers in embrace. As a child I listened to the songs of angels among the trees and watched the elementals dance with childish eyes of wonder. That old fieldstone bridge, was a magical sanctuary.

Funny how an old structure can conjure up visions of eras long past, of its people their traditions and their beliefs. As children they are far more real. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
