Bridges

Categories: Relationships

Bridges are essential
Bridges to cross torrents.

Torrents of misunderstanding
Torrents of fear and dread.

May I learn to build bridges
Small or great, long or short.

Bridges of peace
To bring calm and reassurance.

Bridges of joy
Touching and warming hearts.

Bridges of love
That unite opposing sides.

Bridges are indispensable
Construction is imperative.

If there are no bridges
How can anyone get to the other side?
