Bridges Poem

My heart longs for what

Lies on the other side but

I fear it also.

    This is another great work! Although we know what is going on on our side, the other side is the unknown. This is what sparks out curiosity, because it can be something good or bad. Stay safe and have a great weekend!

      I think the present influences our interpretation of many things, but I love that you keep an open mind. 🙂

    Mi piace veramente molto. Picture and poem are deeply tied. Together they create true emotions. You are also a fotograph?

      You are very kind! I know how to operate a camera but I do not the photos on my blog; most of the images come from the talented photographers who share their work on Unsplash.

    Love this, Jaya, I don’t know how you always manage to word things so beautifully but this encapsulates everything that’s going on right now, thank you, Lisa x

      Thank you! This is an old piece I reworked from a couple years ago, and it was scary seeing how it reflected on what is happening today.
