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
