Both Wisdom and Inspiration in this, Peter. I think we all should shelter in this cave.

Well if you go into a glow worm cave, and not come out inspired, then somethings wrong LOL, excellente Peter.
Ty, I love stalagmites and stalagtites too.

Motivational thoughts, Peter. Thank you for sharing them. Love and peace,

We are but charmed and fuzzy quarks chasing each other around, yet our hard edges from long survived DNA, do not easily peel off. I, for one, find it hard, as you so aptly pointed out, find it hard to leap from fact to fantasy.

Ron

Great depth of thought penned within.

Peter, a beautiful and inspiring write! I want to go to the Cave of Aspirations!!! And a fascinating graphic to go with your wonderful write. All in all, a pleasure to come upon this foggy Sunday morning.

Peace. Joyce

Thank you for this timely dose of inspiration and motivation. Belief in Self and positive possibilities are easily shaken in these challenging times but poems such as these help restore both faith and courage.

You make two important points, one is that we must have aspirations, the other is that we should be wise and choose those which are attainable. A fine poem. Victor

superb imagery and metaphor ... yes, there are those who can decipher reality from fantasy and "harness that Power deep in your Colossal Mind" ... profound philosophic truisms flow from this poem, Peter ...

Peter,
This is target to a study of positive affirmations for bringing self in line in all areas been trying...... Thank you for this inspiring piece. God teaches us to speak those things and we attract them too..

Love, Peace

So Peter, you've been reading Michael Losier! LOL

This is a finely-tuned, and powerfully telling write, descriptive of your own masterful skills, Sir Patton.

Great graphic and quote, too.
Love&Blessings, Rhonda

Your always on point Peter, and your wisdom is a beacon of light to all who seek a balanced path to trod!You are inspired and bless others because of it! Thank you!

Just as a moth is attracted to flames...such is one heart to another. The depth of the heart is as dark as a cave but full of magic with a light that burns immortal. The crystals of energies and mysterious strengths still be explored , fills the pill in your libes. I've always been amazed at the power of crystals/stalactites .
Try this...find two crytals...go into a completely dark room ,then hit one crystal against the other. They will spark and light up with a blue glow and stay lit for quite a while.
Let me know how you feel afterwards.
Love,
Susan

This is a great poem, I love how you've used cave terminology within the writing...wonderful. This takes me back to my youth, we explored caves that were located in the mountains behind our farm at least once a week, we went believing we would find treasure, and indeed we did, many Native American artifacts that are still treasures today. Very inspiring write...
Blessings,
Joyce Bowling

This is a poem with a big loud clear warm voice - liked this flowing, uplifting poem all the way up to the light - lovely! Nicky x

this poem is quite meaningful to me as I have been trying to significantly change my thought patterns. This is a wonderful poem, Peter. As with all of your poetry, it reads smoothly and that is always a joy to experience!

Susan

Wonderful serene uplifting inspiring and philsophical write Peter!!

Nice read before lalla-time!!

Love Tinka

What an awesome write and a pleasure to read.

Sir Peter the philsophical ...

Such calmness permeates your writes. And dealing with such a heady topic - you don't walk through the fires you levitate through them will the skill of a fine sculpture of thought.

"to those who know
how to differentiate
between fact and fantasy" is, in my mind, the strong thread that ties together this write.

Since imaginative power is a form of fantasy, which can lead one easily down the wrong paths, because of its propensity to be at times so abstract, I feel that you are exhorting the reader to know the difference between what is eternal and what is transitory as we follow the road of our own aspirations.

I feel as if I have ingested dew laden gems of heavenly wisdom in this construct.

I salute you fellow traveler ...

Richard Lloyd Cederberg

In the cave of your thoughts you have produced a memorable poem.
