Crossing Bridges
Always enjoyed crossing bridges
Looking down to see what
divided the land so
I hoped to see rivers
their flow
I like the waters to be on the go
Sometimes there were
railroad tracks
Sometimes trains with horns blowing back
Then there were trees
sometimes
swishing in the breeze
I loved the bridges
connecting
the Florida Keys
And Ponchatrain
going on endlessly
or so it seemed to me
Never been to Brooklyn
no I didn't buy a bridge
I have a picture of it taped upon my fridge
I crossed the Mississippi on bridges that were high and sometime low
One bridge fell into the river and it's not there anymore
Too bad HP has no picture avatars
I have pictures of the pillars
Still reminding me and Willard
