Voices on the Bridge at Pontypridd Museum.
What a venue for a night of poetry readings and music! Surrounded by Miners Lodge Banners and overlooked by a portrait of Lady Charlotte Guest! A successful night with a great turnout!
Bridging
Bridges aren’t just about getting somewhere
in this age of having to get somewhere
or to be somebody whatever that means.
Bridges are about connections
about joining one side to another
to join divides and separations.
Bridges span different views
bridges connect generations
make things come together
make old things new
bridges make life possible
bridges span and connect
bridges aren’t about divisions
bridges join and mend
the gulfs between us
help us speak to one another
allow us to bring things in
allow us to take things out
allow us to meet and share
allow us to see things anew
to span divides, connect, renew.
Bridges are life givers
so let’s join together
and not let divides
part us from life
or keep us away
from one another.
Bridges give meaning
so let’s build bridges together.
