it takes 40minutes to walk it
hundreds of tourists do it everyday
its' gates look like perfectly carved candle flames
miranda & steve reclindled their love on it
for me - it wasn't about crossing the brooklyn bridge, it was all about seeing my manhattan.
staring across the east river to manhattan was a reminder.
a reminder i didn't really need.. & definitely wasn't expecting.
but a reminder non the less.
seeing manhattan from across the water,
seeing it so close i could touch it.
the dream is happening.
the dream is right there.
cross that old darn bridge & get back to it!!!
*****
...before heading back to my dream destination. i took a minute
(maybe an hour...)
i took my time, to sit back & appreciate the fact that i could now sit across from the place i had only dreamt of & recognise it like i had spent my whole life their.
chrysler, empire, one world, woolworth, city hall, GE.
i know you now & i can't imagine life without you.
