a block of solid metal stands
upon a patch of grass
unyielding in its permanence
but worth a second glance
one step closer might reveal
train tracks passing through
industrial in nature;
yet beckoning a few
look closer
see, it comes to life!
movement, change of light –
past and present heritage,
among the starry night
you may not see it passing by
or looking from afar,
this bridge to splendid garden,
this ladder to the stars
