Shadow Comments

I'm of two minds: by putting shadow in the title, I knew the identity of your amazing playful new companion and enjoyed the transformation that come easily to an insubstantial being like a shadow. But if you had not told whom it was in the title, your poem is so vivid and specific, we could have fun puzzling it out. Either way your poem is very charming. It captures the happy mood of a summer day spent outside with the wonders of nature regaling us with surprises, none of which we can experience indoors. BTW I like the fact you told us it's a shadow at the beginning.! WE can enjoy the interplay of these unlikely friends fully with that knowledge. That's my take on it.

Though our figure is not transformed by the direction of light that falls on us, our shadow of course are. A brilliant poem which richly deserves 10/10. Since the current topic on PH is on ‘ Peace, ’ may I also take this opportunity to read my poem entitled ‘ A Nice Wise Guy, ’ on PH

When there is light my friend is there and she is none but my shadow! Though our figure is not transformed by the direction of light that falls on us, our shadow of course are. A brilliant poem which richly deserves 10/10. Also, since the current topic on PH is on ‘ Peace, ’ I invite you to read my poem entitled ‘ A Nice Wise Guy, ’ on PH

shadow changes according to light

No doubt dear poet it is your shadow that comes and changes, adjusts with the sun always which follows you everywhere and every side on its own position with the sun rays. But the comment here is that you have great achievement of your creativity in this poem that pleasantly experienced as a reader and likes it much.

That's the way with her. She does everything we do during the day and hides beside us at night. Mallika more creative endeavors
