Day 28: Bridge Palinode


Today's prompt is to write about a bridge... 

I'm going to kill two prompts with one poem here as this one is also palinode -  a poem that retracts a statement made in an earlier poem (this poem does exactly that for day 17). Short and simple one today:




Bridge

Sometimes a smile 
is a bridge
that can nudge 
two parallel lines
together.
Or at least
span the width 
of separation,
a high beam
suspension

of uncertainty, 
rise up and over
all kinds
of troubled waters.
