Abyss

A chasm divides us from spiritual realms Bringing inner conflict as we spiral into chaos Yet the divide gets deeper with time Shadowy preachers spew twisted sermons Steep is the fall from grace 12-13-2021

Very poignant Acrostic....the abyss seems to become deeper and deeper through time. Wishing you a very Happy New Year! Paulette

Yes indeed, sometimes the soul falls deep into the chasms of life, only God can resurrect that, nicely penned dear Joseph. Merry Christmas be well, and prosper, xo
