Midnight BridgeA Poem by Maryam MottahedehMidnight Bridge I’m a temporary shade In the endless ocean of color Counting temporary visitors up my bay Counting the habit of the falling yellow leaves Their surrender to the wind Counting the routine of blossoms emerging eagerness in spring The rounding of a pebble’s celebration In remembrance of the birthday away from the mountain
Slowly and bit by bit We migrate back again Like the birds to the other side of the moon Crossing the midnight bridge Where the habit of intuition Rounds itself whole Beaming out a glorious moon In the darkest hour of a dream© 2013 Maryam Mottahedeh |
