Cave of wonder

I set sail in a boat
And rowed into a cave
I needed to find myself a getaway
A place of solitude where I can still my mind
Away from hustle and bustle of life
I sit in my little boat in this big cave
Sheltered from the oceans mighty waves
Illuminated by glow worms upon high
The water is still as I am inside
I listen to the sounds of water lapping lazily on rock
The slight echo as the boat rocks
As I sit and watch the glow worms
Create an alternate universe
As if they are stars, I feel in turn somehow lost
But now found again in this darkness
I embrace the isolation like and friend
I glance down at the water as it is mirroring
The cosmic display that the glow worms share
I feel carried away as I am meditating
And I imagine what a wondrous place this earth could be
If this peace I found here could reach out
To all humanity
And heal the wounds, the suffering and hurt
This isolation in this cave really shows its worth
Developing my consciousness
Helping me grow
And this meditation
Helps the seeds of love to be sown.
