Bridge Across Eternity

Across the bridge
The story goes,
A hunter’s maiden
Built her home,
A home that stood
Through storm and rain,
A home that sheltered
All her pain.

Her name forgotten,
Now unknown,
The name of the child
He called his own.

Across the bridge
A child now grown,
Looked for her mother
And a home of old.
Find her she did
The story goes,
A part of the heavens
And a river bold.
