Bridge of Relief

You are my bridge
spanning onto new plateaus
over patches of rough water
open chasms of peril and fear
with you near me...
I have no dread of tomorrow
or of cold black nights
or of holding ceremonies
from dusk til dawn
you are my dusk, my dawn
my past and my future...
you are the ceremony...

by bentfeather (c) 2003

This poem was written here at FR in the Old Belvedere Lounge, The Poetry Branch of Free Republic.
I wrote it in twenty minutes.

I've read it a dozen times and get a different perspective each time. There's much to a bridge.
