Brother Shadow From my heel to the time of day Sweeps shadow in mimetic play Plays puppet and I the fiddling This shadow does friendly bidding. Walks with me in the light of sun Mirroring what ever is done. Unnoticed in the grey of shade But move for move in light is made. I draw on this genie's beckon Make dragons of shadows reckon. Enact my villains on a wall A knight to charge and make them fall. It helps me through the pain of hours Lends to me transparent powers. And gives to me a focus tool To play a playful silly fool. A synergistic wile portend. That is my sword in guile, a friend. [This message has been edited by Seymour Tabin (edited 01-16-2001).] |

Awesome, the last two lines are perfect. Like JM said, wayy cool. Incredible poetry here, I really enjoyed it!  *Krista Knutson* I'm a slow dying flower In a frost-killing hour The sweet turning sour and untouchable... -Natalie Merchant |

Seymour, this was indeed a treat of read and ya know this gave me a vision of shadow dragon dancing and need I say more... well I shall... I can remember sweet times with clench of palm and twitch of fingertips while flashlite held in other hand we'd create magical tales of shadows on the wall when night time fell... Magnificently written as our friends above have said... Thank you PoetFriend *~coco~* |
