I cross
Between right and left
Between green and greener
Between here and there
Between past and future
Between mind and body
Every crossing
I behold a few
Who travel the path of balance
At the fulcrum of existence
Neither right nor left but centred
Neither green nor greener, only grass
Neither here nor there but connected to all
Neither past nor future, only this moment
Both mind and body experienced from spirit
The bridge offers choices between opposites
The river flows with the possibility of all things
On Bridges and Rivers

The Ram Jhula suspension bridge over the Ganga (Ganges River). A constant stream of pedestrians, scooters, motorcycles and monkeys. (Be very wary of the monkeys!)
