The Cave

A voice beckoned me

into the cave

Come

Deeper

Do not worry for light

Your eyes will adjust

in time

You are safe

in this place

of immense danger

Feel the floor beneath

your feet fall away

as walls so steep

drift apart and guide your way

Deeper

Come

into the cave

Thoughts

We must all enter into the cave at some point in our life. Don’t leave it until the last five minutes as it may come as a terrible shock. Start visiting when you think you are ready.

I was reminded that cave is French for cellar. Good wine for all.
