Old Sins Cast Long Shadows

Old sins cast long shadows, aspersions of grey in filmy ink to ensnare generations and keep them in the dark; this little light of mine will only reach one small corner, but I will let it shine.

Old sins cast long shadows,

aspersions of grey in filmy

ink to ensnare

generations

and keep them in the

dark; this little light of mine

will only reach one small corner,

but I will let it

shine.

        Yep, a very un-hoity-toity pal suggested it, and I thought, “Cool–that works!” Friends come in so handy for all the big, and piddly stuff in life!! I’m hard at work on the May testimony re the recent disappearing act (Valley experience). It will be LONG, but you might like it…

    That’s so true but so hard to do.

      Isn’t it? The power of light in a dark world is rarely understood for its full potential…
