Tiny Poem for the-day-that's-innit

As per my previous post, today is Write-a-Tiny-Poem Day. Herewith one inspired by my recent trip to New York.



        Padlocklove

Along the Brooklyn Bridge
there are love locks
whose keys lie in the river silt.
Here all love is secure.

I like that one. I read about love padlocks in Cologne but I didn't realize that they were a worldwide phenomenon. It's really sweet

Hi Aidan
It started in Italy, inspired by the movie of a novel. So, a proper literary tradition!
