THE BRIDGES

Bridges are built

to cement relationships

either distant or nearby

to bury the differences

or enmity between nations.

Bridges are built across

rivers and  canals

to facilitate movements for the

citizens to cross to and fro from

one side to other.

Bridges are built to

cement smooth relationships

between couples

who are at loggerheads with each other.

Bridges built over

rivers or canals for

the convenient crossing

of citizens and vehicles

Bridges built to

smoothen relationships 

between a couple

or for that matter couples

all are likely to

collapse in the course of time

hence bridges are

built again and again

unmindful of the

consequences awaiting the

nations, rivers or canals or couples.

In these days and age

all relations are

brittle and ductile like some metals.
