"A Bridge in Time"

by Ronda, age 15

walking down a long lonely path time is frozen.
I come upon a worn-out bridge sitting there without even a drop of water under it or a tire tread leading down!
Now I come here to think about frozen times and to find myself!!!
to search for today, tonight, and tomorrow
until I see the clouds slowly move!
and I realize time isn’t frozen just
this bridge in time!

Ronda received $15 for having her poem published.
