Me and my Shadow I see my shadow t’was born with me A spore that caught reality A vessel launched that cuts a wake That steers a course make no mistake. Through the dark of night and gale This ship will cut a wake and sail Out of sight of land it seems With a compliment of dreams This is the course of common core Some with less and some with more A blow upon the sand dooms rhyme Brought by the hand of changing time Beware the curse of diadem With treasured gold and colored gem They are but shackles of the mind Quick sand on the path of find Each ship will stop and renew Such is the lean and change of brew. |

I see my shadow t’was born with me A spore that caught reality A vessel launched that cuts a wake That steers a course make no mistake. Through the dark of night and gale This ship will cut a wake and sail Out of sight of land it seems With a compliment of dreams This is the course of common core Some with less and some with more A blow upon the sand dooms rhyme Brought by the hand of changing time ================================= I would follow you and your shadow anywhere ![]() Beware the curse of diadem With treasured gold and colored gem They are but shackles of the mind Quick sand on the path of find Could that verse be any cooler??????? Quick sand on the path of find you are tooooo cooool for school ![]() *ww* ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Enjoyed your poem and remembered when we played as children trying to catch the shadow .... embracing it by laying down was the only way to "grasp" it. Love, have a beautiful week-end.... hopefully you may see your shadow!!! Margherita ![]() |
