Bridges Of Blessings Poem by John Sensele

Bridges of sympathy, bridges of power
Bridges to mutual mercy
Propel loftier life in every hour
That people of goodwill invest in diplomacy.

Bridges of compassion, bridges of progress
Bridges of mutual respect
Propel solutions to long-standing stress
That people of goodwill suspect I retrospect.

Bridges of collaboration, bridges of happiness
Bridges of mutual understanding
Propel lives away from sadness
That accumulates from increase in a misunderstanding.

Bridges of cooperation, bridges of growth
Bridges of mutual forgiveness
Propel lives to abandon the path of wrath
That derives vitality from a cocktail of mundane madness.
