The bridge



How do you share your success with others?



Are you that person who share a table with hungry people but you swallow a plateful of meals as others watch?



Let us learn the art of sharing the little we have with others. Let us also build  bridges for those behind us.



For the love of poems, I share my sentiments with you through a poem.



 At the edge of the marsh



​​​​​​I will stick and unstuck myself



with a heap of the harvested reeds



I take my very first step



steps towards the ocean



where my long journey takes off 



 



A point where construction begins



construction of the ever strongest bridge



with the risk of its inhabitants



I will dive and swim across, but 



I will still remain strong and focused



for the care in me burns with flames



 



The struggle is real, but



behind me is the bridge



a bridge woven from the reeds 



a step way for those behind me



for I need to share a bite with them



a bite of the sweetest fruit



a fruit that only grows at the edge of this ocean 



Much love.
