Shadow

By ( 7 ) 
Sometimes feel
like a shadow
a fraud
bleak reflection of
the beautiful and 
bright
against the wall
but sometimes
in the setting 
autumn sun
the shadow
is the center
center of the stage

We all depend upon the sun, ha de Gött!

    So true! Sometimes the shadow is more elegant, more expressive than the thing itself. I love your poem and the photo.
