Riddle

A blue bridge spans a gap
allowing passage.

Its own death trap,
a passage across a Gorge
built by a master's young hands
before he grew old and
left a legacy to stand
from time to time
allowing passage.

The sky is often blue,
then the ocean follows suit,
sky and ocean in cahoots
with a passage that disappears when it stands.

An invisible passage spans a gap in time,
between past and present.

A blue sphinx,
when it lies down
across a passage,
asks a question:

You have heard it before,
and you know the answer.
