THE BRIDGE BY SHEL SILVERSTEIN | Writing on the sidewalk

High School Graduation Day!

I’ll leave this post to Shel Silverstein…

THIS BRIDGE

This bridge will only take you halfway there

To those mysterious lands you long to see:

Through gypsy camps and swirling Arab fairs

And moonlit woods where unicorns run free.

So come and walk awhile with me and share

The twisting trails and wondrous worlds I’ve known.

But this bridge will only take you halfway there–

The last few steps you’ll have to take alone.

(By Shel Silverstein from A Light in the Attic… even though the image is from Where the Sidewalk Ends – appropriate for the theme of our blog!)
