WordPress Monthly Word Prompt – Bridge
Each month, WordPress.com will be bringing you a single word that serves as a prompt for your writing, your art, your coding — whatever it is that makes you, you. For March, the WordPrompt is: BRIDGE.
Use that word as a jumping-off point to publish a new post, whether you’re a lifestyle blogger or a foodie, a photographer, or a poet. However, you create, be sure to add the tag #WordPrompt to your post and join others on WordPress.com using the prompt. Next month, we’ll share a few of our favorites!

“I am learning to love the sound of my feet walking away from things that aren’t meant for me.” unknown
Lights Above Bridges
Bridges span our invisible years
And carry forgotten fallen tears
Crossing over old hidden fears
Bridges are burnt over time
Years turn to ashes in an instant
And time is our only constant
Beyond the longest bridges
Under the ocean’s deepest blue
And above nature’s darkest green
Love’s evolving hues renew
And Aurora lights are on debut
💖 “Bridges are burnt over time
Years turn to ashes in an instant
And time is our only constant ”
Beautifully written words, Ivor.
Thank you Eugenia …. and there many more sad bidges for us to cross ..
Splintered Bridges
Bridges of ancient dreams spanned
On the wings of the bridled albatross
Flying over shallow lakes of delta dross
Bridges crossing from there to where
Above the worlds fractured rivers
Meandering from there to here
Connecting lonely bridal hands
Of people from far away lands
Bridges trekked by torn and splintered feet
And blooded by bomb blasted streets
🤍 🕊 🤍
Yes, what we think makes a difference!
Indeed, it does, Patricia!

Some of my favorite bridges remain the old covered bridges in my area. Some of the covered bridges were known as ‘Kissing Bridges, because the young Amish couples in their ‘dating’ open buggies could briefly stop under them for a quick smooch 😀
Most often too they are single lane, so one has to make sure the other side is clear before crossing.
Covered bridges are interesting. According to Wikipedia, there are many historical covered bridges still in existence. I have memories of them while traveling through Missouri, Tennessee and Virginia.

I’ve got a signed book from a gent who took a bunch of my states covered bridges 🙂
