Hi Rosemary. It's a stand-in for the Lions Gate Bridge (an experience from my teenage years). I wanted a photo from the point of view of figure in the poem, what he might see. That one fit the bill. Yes, agree about the song. Thanks for reading!
I used to have a drink at a bar at the base of the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan side, late at night, no one there, alone. Your posts evoke memories, long lost. Thank you.
Believe that's Battery Park; took a water taxi there. Had a drink
Time Changes.
Liberty still lights the scene.
Bridge crosses waters.
I believe so!
This song has always broken my heart: such an oddly cheerful melody behind such sad lyrics.
How did you happen to place your poem on the Brooklyn Bridge…one of my favourite places?

Yes, seem to for you. You paint a very Edward Hopper picture. So glad they resonate. :)
Lovely. Lyricism and pattern!
Thanks, Thomas! Means a lot.
