Souderton - Past and Present Under The Railroad Bridge, Part 2
Here are the pictures painted on the other side of the railroad bridge over Chestnut Street in Souderton, Pennsylvania. For these, I don't have interpretive comments to make except to say that the second picture is a close-up of the poem in the first picture. The pictures are presented as viewed from left to right. Click on the pictures for a larger view.
Hi, ginnie. Is it because of the more literary feel, the pleasure of a lazy fishing day, the bountiful fruit, or something else that you like this side the best?
My main blog: Ramblings generally focuses on telling a story via photography and words. These stories generally center around family, nature, and church although sometimes just about life in general. I also have a blog entitled Fingerprints. I post less frequently in Fingerprints. It serves as a catch all of anything that does not go in my Ramblings blog including memes, quizzes, and reports on books and movies.
The road awaits
Time doesn't
The road beckons
Time steps forward
Will we move
In step with time?
Will we step forward
Shaping our time?
Will we take time
To see the present?
Will we explore the past
And understand our heritage?
Will we laugh?
Will we wonder?
Will we touch?
Will we feel?
Time flies on
We have choices
Shall we go fast?
Shall we go slow?
We shall go forward
But we will choose the pace
We may dance with all our heart
Or bathe ourselves in a setting sun

Now that's the grafitti I love!
You're so right, san nakji. Except this was commissioned I think by the town. So I don't know that one can really call it grafitti. :)
Hmm. I could swear I left a comment on this side but apparently didn't finish it. Anyway, I think I like this side the best!

What a beautiful mural! And I like the poem a lot. Your posts are always so perfect and concise!
Thanks, crystal. I try to make my posts meaningful. I love the mural, too.
I love free art - for everyone to see, espically those who would never take the time to look at art.
Thanks, Michelle Bialowas. I totally agree with your sentiment there. And I think it brightens up one's day as one goes by it.
