Notes About The Poem

The Silent Bridge

Across the chasm, wide and vast
A silent bridge connects the past.

Its stones are words, its mortar thought
A path to truths we’ve often sought.

To cross it takes no strength or speed
But faith in what the soul does need.

A bridge unseen, yet always there
A link between despair and care.

Love how you've framed what the bridge connects, Brian... And it sure does take a lot of faith to cross it, if not a touch of madness. ~ gw
