SHADOWS

The sky

coloured by its

varying moods...

blue, pink

mauve and purple;

The clouds forever busy

moving, drawing patterns

on the vast canvas

of the sky;

clouding it golden,

grey and white...

the hues and shapes

creating shadows deep

shadows that flit past

the trees,

mountains and rivers;

shadows that have a life 

of their own,

shadows that dance

in the twilight and dusk

and throughout the day,

lengthening and deepening...

Shadows that come alive 

at the soft touch of light....
