The Shadows Personality (Not One Of My Best Workes I Know) Poem by Terry jones

The Shadows Personality (Not One Of My Best Workes I Know)

Rating: 5.0


The shadow is not light nor is it dark,
it is not twilight nor is it dusk,
the shadow is an unstable thing,
easily influenced by the movement of others,
the shadow is like ying and yang,
two opposite forces working together to make something,
but cannot exist unless the two forces merge,
shadows are not free,
they must be seen in light but must flee from dark,
the shadow must remained balanced,
if the light is consumed by the darkness the shadow is consumed as well,
if the dark fades to the light the shadow vanishes,
so if you think shadows are simple think again for a shadow is not just physical,
it is mythical as well,

There is only one part I don't like...the part where you said '(Not one of my best works) ! '...this is great! It's very deep and different. Excellent job. You are obviously talented-keep it up!

I really like all the ideas in here. That's some deep thinking, which I can appreciate (since it's so hard for me to do it!) smiles, P
