Silver Chalice of Hope

Silver Chalice of Hope Once chased that Silver Chalice with abandon and glee life as yet unlived and fate yet to test, the bounty , purity and sweetness from my living tree days turned to years as Chalice was laid to rest Joys, births , deaths and sorrows all cut deeply into me Silver Chalice desperately sought yet never found, journeying ever forward with this trust my sacred key Silver Chalice or not , this soul still Paradise bound!

Thank you my friend.. Hope is the last great handle above the deep, dark Abyss. Best to grab on for dear life when darkness attempts to overwhelm..

Thanks my friend. Faith steels us when we despair. It saves us when we lose our way. It brightens up even a dreary and blue day.. Thanks for thinking it a fav list write!!!
