Shadows

I fear the shadows of the past,
darkness encroaching –
doubt the loyalty of light.

Turtles dwell in shaded places,
equally as undaunted in the sun –
have acclimatized to polarities.

Birds, focused only in the moment,
disregard the invasion of shadows
only in my eyes are transformed.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  1. Knock-me-over good, V.J. I love these 3 lines best, especially the last one–fabulous writing.

    I fear the shadows of the past,
    darkness encroaching –
    doubt the loyalty of light.
