Bridges

The totally terrific Tower Bridge over the Thames
We think we can't go back over a burnt bridge.
That's how that saying goes, huh?
We think there's no second chance to rebuild.
Our opportunity's gone, the flames demolished our road.

But bridges can be rebuilt.

You don't have to be an expert engineer to start over, either.
You don't need to know a thing about suspension or beams or cantilever spans.
You just need to dare to hope and trust.
There are parts of that bridge that can be remade.
Maybe some communication needs to take place to help the construction along.
Maybe an apology or a forgiving heart would be the new foundation.
Maybe some time away, to think about the design, would help the building process.

Sometimes, a second bridge is just as good, if not better, than the first.
