Shadows imitate every thing in life <br />But it does not argue, fuss, or fight <br />And can be changed by the reflection of light <br />Your shadow will imitate everything that you do <br />For that shadow belongs to you. <br /> <br />The shadow of an object can <br />hide you from the sun <br />Not just you but every one. <br /> <br />Shadows have but one color (black) <br />And it is not belittled or put down <br />But accepted by all you see <br />Which makes it one of gods mysteries. <br /> <br />It can be seen in the sunlight <br />But not in the dark <br />It can even be seen with artificial light <br />And the kids have fun with it <br />Man! What a sight. <br /> <br />It has no face to show emotions <br />And it will always be by your side <br />Although at times it must hide. <br />The sun can not touch it, as it stares up at you <br />This is something the sun can not do. <br /> <br />The shadow will walk in front of you <br />Or in back, or walk on your sides <br />But will always be there wherever you go <br />For it is something that we all know <br />And to my shadow I say “hello”.<br /><br />louis rams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hello-shadows/
