Plato’s Path to Enlightenment

Plato’s Path to Enlightenment

Serene Ideas are the Truth beyond

The things our senses show to us.  What we see

And smell and taste and touch and hear are fond

Impressions but are not the Truth.  To free

Ourselves from mere impressions, we must break

Away, dismissing them as shadows, climb

Up to Ideas’ realm, and leave those fake

Perceptions that we know, those things of grime

We felt are real.  Above will shine a sun

So brilliant that at first its light will blind

Our eyes but then as they adjust, the one

Great Truth will come to them.  At last they find

Ideas that are actuality.

We then will know their Pure Reality.
