Covered Bridge

Picturesque lady
Adorned in the beauty of the seasons
Standing sturdy through decades
Of traffic rattling boards and beams
And she determines to forge forward.

Stalwart lady
Adorned in winter whites
Draped and coated in snowfalls;
Wrapped in winter azure skies
Icy springs swirl beneath.

Resilient lady
Embellished by spring’s naissance of colors
Red buds and dogwoods erupt
Cloaking and covering rooftops
Trumpeting daffodils escort stony roads.

Antiquated lady
Adorned in lush summer greenness
Grassy carpet unfurls along side
Wood weathered by intense heat
And sunbeams sparkle intense.

Venerable lady
Enshrouded in autumn shades
Maple leaves and rusty weeds
Litter the lady’s landscape
Color punctuates each portrait.

Picturesque lady
Adorned in the beauty of the seasons
Enduring for decades of time
Awe-inspiring wonderment
Panoramic backdrop of times gone by.
