The eastward skies opened up like a little girl's smiling face Just as dark clouds rushed away as if part of a big race. A new morning had risen with sun's bright and dazzling rays A new day had thus begun in summer birds' chirping sways. My eyes rolled to see the other side where my shadow lay The westward horizon today seemed much more than away. It felt so strange that the yesterday looked a distant past As I said bye to the stars who left the scene fleeing fast. Yet I know that like a dream this sunny day will be gone And I would stay back to welcome night stars to shine till dawn. This cycle will thus go on with day following the night Continued by the night rushing behind crimson day light. And life will go on with me following my shadow's sight Continued by my dark shape playing catch-up with my might. And all this time and all these years in hope's warm afterglow A candle of faith in my own being will host my show. **** Maybe the title is a bit weird... hopefully the content is not... Thanks in advance for coming by... [This message has been edited by Sudhir Iyer (edited 05-07-2001).] |

Thought the title very fitting,, nicely done.. There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar. |

" And life will go on with me following my shadow's sight Continued by my dark shape playing catch-up with my might." Ah Sudhir ... always a pleasure to read your vantage on life. I chase this shadow endlessly too, and found this to be a very visual piece for me. Very nicely written, much enjoyed! ![]() Best wishes, /Kit |
