Bridge with a Lock

This post can be titled as above, or it could be titled: "The River Seine is Wet." 

The following poem is from my book, Perched on the Edge.

Bridge with a Lock

Paris features bridges

some with clocks

and some with locks.

The locks are fastened 

there by lovers

who appreciate themselves.

There is a bridge

that has no clock

but has a lot of locks.

I'll be waiting 

on that bridge

out amidst the locks.

So you will have

to look for me

on the bridge without a clock

standing by a lock

because you're the only one

who has the proper key.

You said you felt you had the need

to let our love go free

but I don't know what that means

and I can't afford to wait.

I think I'll jump into the Seine

if you're a minute late.

The theme for April 1 is "Wet."  The above is my interpretation which allowed me to use one of our Paris photos and to promote my book!  Such a deal!
