Fleeting Shadows

As I drink from that first steaming mug
in the early morning, my mind is telling
me yesterday's stories, or mulling over
the night's dreaming.

Then the sun sneaks over the trees,
silently angling shadows into my awareness.
They linger a minute or two, and are gone.

Those fleeting shadows take
my stories with them.

It's a new day.

I enjoy your philosophy of the fleeting shadows and you portray them beautifully. When you think about it,isn't that what good photography is about,i.e the play of light on a subject.
