Shadows

      As the sun crosses the sky shadows caress the ground.     Profound in effort to withstand the circle, all things render.    Tender the growth, both man and beast. Yet the passing never                 ends in the everlasting beginning.    The beast in the sun is refined from the shadows darkened frame.            Becoming a man of creator’s fame, in thy name.    As the shame is painted in light standing upon heaven brightness.   But shouldering in carry the wilting silt to salt the beasts’ wounds.   Shaped wide and long, scars shadowing the newborn flesh in growth.    Still the sunrays shine on the darkened mind reeling of revelation.     As relations evolve to elude, discerning definition distinct as the              worldly beast becomes humbled to not stumble.
