My Shadow
My Shadow
~~~
You are closer to me
Than anyone can be,
We celebrate,
We commiserate,
Are both fragile and strong,
Are as young as we feel…
Share joy and sorrow
And my faith in tomorrow.

The shadow seems to remember all the things we now can’t do. Lucky shadow, no gravity, no age
Gee, Sidey, I never thought of that! Brilliant! Ageless and weightless – wonderful…
Not long now, adee, and you’ll be dancing in the sunshine again.
Oh, yes please… Two weeks… You’re a mind reader, Cin, I couldn’t resist the pic!
What a wonderful picture. It really depicts the words of your poem. What a clever lady you are.
I did ask before, can you send me email and tell me how you did your flag counter please as mine has gone all wrong as it was not on the sidebar..Help please Denise!
love p
Thanks, Patrecia, I’m glad you liked it.
You have to put the flag counter on your sidebar yourself. I will email you instructions and the link. Sorry, I didn’t get your email asking me. xxx
ah i like the comment on the shadow…a finely played verse…its all in how the light hits us…
Yes, at an oblique angle and we are tall and slim, haha…
Picture says so much about human spirit
You’re so right, Carl. We may look old as Methuselah and feel as young and frisky as a kitten, lol.
Denise – that’s truly lovely.
Food for a great deal of thought.
I enjoyed reading it.

Thanks, John. Wow it’s freezing here today. I hope it doesn’t last more than another day or so…
Love this . . . and that graphic just makes me want to DANCE!
Glad you’ll be back on your feet SOON, Denise.
Thanks, Nancy. The pic looked so familiar I wasn’t sure if I’d used it before, lol!
I just hope the X-rays are OK this time – please send healing thoughts for me… I really need them. xxx
