A Crossing

Just across the bridge, the road turns

gold as the sun

begins its long

descent and for

a time the way is golden lit

before it turns

from gold to gray,

then back again.

So it goes until the final

bend toward home when

the shadows grow

and night is near.

    I enjoyed riding home with you and making the last turn off rt6 toward the house. Only on pondering a bit did the thought come to me, “that’s life.” Thanks!

    Noah Matthews nailed it! It is nice, in the best sense of the word, and with inflection.
