The Shadows I Make ~Marge Tindal~ The shadows I make as through life I traipse will cling to my path no matter what path I take I cannot dodge the shadows so I strive to see that the shadows I leave don't come back to haunt me in the shadows of my memory ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Liked this one a lot~ Goes along the lines of burning your bridges, I believe~ (A lesson I learned just last year- never burn them!) Marie~ "Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind; And therefore is wing'd Cupid painted blind." The Bard |

I enjoy this very much the first time. The second time (over coffee with the girls) was even better. It makes you stop and say..."How True". |

up late, we we're hoping those shadows wouldn't be following us too. Thank God for His pictures and protections... It's terrible that we can't know who is who..! M. Tindal we love you. |

Denise- Thanks, gal. Danny- I appreciate your thoughts. Seymour- You know I'm glad you like it. WhiteDove- It is true, isn't it? We should always be aware of the shadows we leave. Marie- I'm glad you liked it. Mike- Thanks. Sunshine- Well, I have a short, sweet, simple shadow. ![]() Shelley- What a thoughtful thing to say. How wonderful that you share us with 'the girls'. Lucky- Awwwwww ! You two are in my heart too. I KNOW who I am ... and I KNOW who my friends are ... count you two in BIG TIME ! ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Oh how wise, such words from thee of shadows, cast, so fittingly when stray we from the path we know our shadow follows, e're we go. Wonderful poem, Marge! How true! Claire |

When Kronos' art unmakes us, each the same, The shadow cast is all that shall remain. --Me (hehe) An intriguing thought, and one I have shared. Well done, Marge! ![]() --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |
