enshrined on the bridge

a mood piece – can only write these things when happy as Larry.


enshrined on the bridge

 

tied tight to the railing

a pair of blue bootees

a print of baby’s palm

 

a cellophane bouquet,

a magic marker plea,    

on a tear splashed goodbye,

 

‘please, someone, pray for me,

it is all too much to bear,

think well of me… Jilly,’

 

and in a wine bottle

a candle burned away.
