This is how much I thought I knew you. I hand you over my bridges. Don't burn them down. Don't break them down. Let them take you places. Somewhere warm somewhere welcome. Somewhere we could meet and be good friends one day. I don't want to have to die to meet you but I am. I hand you over my bridges Don't burn them down. Don't break them now. Let them take you places. i will be of one command. |

Hi John Your poem made me feel sad....and also made me think. I think everyone has their own bridges, ya know...made from the small and large terror or joy that has been their own. So, I don't think you can give your bridges....but I'm glad that you made me think about it. I wish you well. |

As Martie mentions your bridges are yours to keep; you may help someone get across one as you would help one to gain access to something new but that is different...keep writing about how life affects you |

I'll try. As for handing over your bridges I'm laughing my butt off inside my head. I think you can hand anyone anything. Here's my gift there goes your hand. That's what I think of that response about not being able to hand over your bridges. Man is able to move mountains. Why not a bridge? I luv ya all though. I think it's halarious. You just gave me writer's block. |
