hi shadow, I haven't forgotten about you it's just that some of the days have been cloudy lately and the nights really haven't been all that bright either but I know that you weren't really that far away from me you were right there, looking over my shoulder and I could feel your smile hear your voice and hold your hand so I know that you didn't forget about me it's just life it's like that sometimes but as long as you're there I'll always know that I'll have someone to talk to someone to laugh with someone to share my secrets with you know that it's always been you shadow thank you. . . ----------------------------------------------------------------- To the world, you may only be one person. But to one person, you may be the world. |

Sven~ You brought to mind that little lilting nursery rhyme - I have a little shadow who goes in and out with me. And what can be the use of him, is more than I can see. Love the thoughts wrapped up in this piece. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Hi Sven, I have spent many an hour in deep conversation with my shadow, a very reliable and trust worthy friend, also one that never leaves you alone in times of trouble or need, this is a magnificent piece here friend, loved it, keeping it, Love, Cerenity "God doesn't have to be reminded that we exist.

Sven dear heart, AD, this is utterly terrific, I love this image, I really love this. I always have been fond of shadows, at least they didn't swipe your lippy, clothes or anything else. Which or course the sisters all did. And they didn't answer back, this is a truly wonderful piece from you. Great comfort in having someone to always relie on. (Well, a shadow is a someone) I love it which goes without saying, and it joins all the others there in my library Thank you for this beauty Take care love as always Mushy ![]() Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |
