Shadow dancers fo Friend Greg

poets in triplets iambic tetrameter

Shadow dancers.

Silver moonbeams weave webs of light

Creating shadows as they flow.

Fluidly from tree to tree.

 

The pictures which they paint delight.

The human eye although we know

They exist momentarily.

 

A beauty only seen by night.

A swiftly changing picture show.

Which few are privileged to see.

 

Shadows depend on the moonlight.

Without the moonlight they would go

Back to invisibility.

 

Absorbed by darkness of the night.

The shadows still exist although.

Without the moon no one would know.

 

But when the moon is shining bright.

She sets the shadows free to go

About their pursuits silently.

 

But come the dawn and broad daylight

The shadows know it’s time to go.

If only temporarily.

 

The day will end and then the night.

Lit by the moonlight will allow

the shadows to dance playfully

TLB is right triplets are a great way to go.(TLB.......Tender Loving Body?) Oh well I really like this work because it is really about the shadows between darkness and light. I believe it is one of your best but I feel the flow is choppy at times. Great write.

oh stop! only one of the many reasons I put up with this place since my muse left me and I couldn't write a bit of poetry if I were held over acid...the cafe still crawls, its buggy and rife with emoetry, pornems and oddments....yet - there you are writing triplets and I LOVE THEM. I read this out loud just to savor your talent.
