Little Shadow

Little Shadow

A Poem by Leigh
"

"Every frightened little shadow dreams of being a golden strand of light"

"

 

I am a little shadow
In the land of grey and
black
I drift between the trees
Among the dark shadows
So shadows be still
Don’t drag me down


I wait for the night to end
When the first of light comes
Then I can be free
To dance and play
As a
golden strand of light
High up in the air above


I will make beautiful colours
Shimmering on the water
Reflecting on a window's glass
Making pretty patterns
Until the night comes again
So be still dark
shadows

A whimsical idea, a shadow comes alive to play in the sunlight. A dark thing turns bright.

Maybe just a little too disjointed. Not seeing the tangible connect between a little shadow being able to transcend into much.

I think this is fun and for some reason it reminded me of a show I used to watch Ghost Whisperer. I enjoyed reading!

I really like this. Just everything about it.
Patience..
It has almost a childlike quality to it which just adds to whole.
