My Shadow You walk a step behind me, In perfect harmony. Then when I move You move too, Just like a melody. When the sun is shining, Then you I see. But in the night, without the moon You disappear from me. You are nothing without me. If not for me, you would not be. We must be friends , lets not pretend You don't belong to me. I cannot set you free. Until I'm free of me. My shadow. Floria Kelderhouse © 2001 |

I can only echo Magnus on this one, Floria. There is nothing else to say, except well done.  sky |

  (sigh) Soooooooo beautifully bittersweet, may you forever overshadow the black of emptiness with the answer and rapture of the union of true love and harmony! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is wonderful! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Floria, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

This poem is so beautiful, Floria...The one thing which will always be with us is our shadow......just like the groundhog!  I wonder if they celebrate People Day, and if the person sees his/her shadow...they will have 6 more weeks of winter? copyright2002 Lyra Nesius |
