Feet Firmly Planted, Arms Reaching Skyward, Strong Hands
A Golden Gate Bridge Tower
Feet firmly planted,
Arms reaching 746 feet skyward,
And hands gripping my raison d'étre.
I am a sight to behold.
Up close: not easily apprehended,
Afar: easily recognized, although seldom the focus.
Absent: chaos and inconvenience.
My twin is 4200 feet away.
Together we enable commerce,
support security and
provide a convenience to transportation.
To the spiritual man,
I am evidence of his Creator's participation
in Creation through humanity.Published by Lloyd Gavin
