Shadow play for M'lady Kerry

sonnet

Shadowplay?

 

When twilight falls, perceptions change.

As shadows subtly rearrange

the mundane things of every day.

 We see them in a different way

But can’t rely on what we see

for shadows can deceive your eyes

 and change familiarity

Into something  which can disguise.

The things that we see normally.

Present them in a different light.

So that they appear to be.

Alien creatures of the night.

I don’t believe they are of course.

But I feel safer back indoors.
