Hope you enjoy your Saturday Post!

Where it is darkest
I stand
Exhausted
One more curve until I see the light
In the cave

Where I have been walking
I pause
Preparing
One more rest before the next move
In the cave

Where I have no reference
I consider
Poignant
The path that I am on
In the cave

Where there’s so little light
I remember
Persistence
Stopping where I am is deadly
In the cave

Where shades and shadows dance
I consider
Allegory
Perception is reality
In the cave

Where light returns softly
I take notice
Appreciative
The exit is preceded by curves
In the cave

In honor of my Mom as a testament to her strength and endurance, as she stands vigil over her firstborn son Andrew in Costa Rica.

Sometimes the battle (i.e. the cave) is the waiting.
