winter’s way is passing
empty barns stand sure
quiet stories ‘neath the trees
whispered tales
forgotten days
beneath the cold
faith will grow
faith must grow
winter’s way is passing
come and grow with me
time is sliding past our door
tears are melting
restored are dreams
beneath the cold
hope will grow
hope must grow
winter’s way is passing
come and sing with me
fill the days with melody
i’m yours alone
our hearts are one
beneath the cold
love will grow
love must grow
…about 13 miles into my favorite bike ride I come across 5 Mile Bridge and…
…this old barn…
…i’ve often wondered about the story of this place…
…untold stories that perhaps reside in someone’s heart and mind…
…the earth seems to be slowly consuming the structures…
…still, there is a quiet beauty about it all…
…a stillness and peace…
…whatever stories these images tell, I dedicate them to an inspiring friend and storyteller: Matthias. Thank you for telling such wonderful stories…
This bridge spans the Illinois River in Morris, IL, just south of the I&M Canal. I love running and bicycle rides along the canal towpath, and this bridge has become a favorite place to explore.
