The Creaky wooden bridge

 I stood on the creaky wooden bridge

Across the winding village stream.

The bright summer moonlight shone

It all seemed like an unbelievable dream.


Moments of anticipation and frustration

Gave way to her reflection in the water

The distant cuckoo provided the perfect symphony

As she made way towards me in saunter.


The iron smith's glowed red at a distance

His furnace, even at this hour, was raging

But, at the moment, my heart seemed burning

More than his furnace, with love that I was waging.


As a prelude to their union with the river yonder

The rustling waters caressed the pebbles and rocks

And as I gently caressed her slim fingers into entanglement

Time seemed to stop, and bid adieu to clocks.
