bridges of home
by Tim Kavi
girders of strength
bring relief to the searching
absent loved ones
want to hurry home
familiar, looking closer
the beams are still strong
every lane leads home
peering closer
decay is evident everywhere
collapse is not imminent
just the wearings of age
home never looked so good
and I will take every bridge gladly
just to be back there
in your arms again
they carry me to all
that I loved and once knew
to the known, the expected,
the life of everyday surprise.
