BRIDGES

Whether to cross a wide river or gorge,
Or some symbolic abyss of our lives,
We all build bridges
From dreams to realities
Looking beyond what we see with our eyes.

There is strength in a bridge;
A power unspoken;
A built-in resolve to inhabit the land,
To cross over boundaries and
Seek out new faces and places
So that we might understand
All of life's little secrets
Lying just "over there";
Just over the harbor, beyond the divide.
We keep building bridges,
Seeking her treasures,
Until mother Earth has no more to hide.
