Lovely haiku for this River Contest.

I had never heard of the 'Bridge of the Gods' - what an original name for a wonderful feat of engineering.

If I had one query about this piece, it would be whether putting the bridge in the first line makes it the focus, rather than the river, thus weakening the connection to the salmon.

I might be tempted to open with 'The mighty Columbia.'

Good luck.

Steve

Good contest piece. The Columbia is beautiful, especially along the shore when all the fruit orchards are in bloom. Best to you.
