When The Sun Shines Poem by Indira Renganathan

When The Sun Shines

Rating: 5.0


When the sun shines on the wall
When the wind blows on the tree
At once there's a shadow art
Does the tall tree on the wall

Now a giraffe then a seahorse
All and all for me to wonder
Well I think that all in nature
Happy of wind and light they dance

Create shadow art of many shapes
Never can man boast of himself
As they are the pioneers
To beat man in shadow art

The shadow art is amazingly captured through magnificent poetic imagination! How we perceive shadows that matters! The last stanza is very realistic. I would quote, ”…. Never can man boast of himself/As they are the pioneers/To beat man in shadow art” A very insightful and commendable piece of poetry! Thank you dear madam for sharing!

A poem written so nicely, shadows are formed but it's our approach how we see these shadows, a beautiful mind sees beauty in the shadows and an ugly mind sees ugliness in the shadows.
