Shadows are mysterious
They come and go as they please
They may make you delirious with their mysterious ways
Shadows will never burn or freeze


Their only life comes from the sun



They will never run
And when night falls they are done with the day
They will never have anything to say

For shadows have no free will
They only do as you wish

They’ll appear large as hills

They’ll appear as small as fish
You can’t step on a shadow for it feels no pain

It never has anything to gain
They adapt to their surroundings and make strange arrangements

They sometimes make for strange entertainment

Shadows can be dark as the midnight sky
Or never be seen on dark and dreary day
Shadows might even go awry

They may appear on quite far away

Shadows can be over ten feet tall


Or they can be very, very small
Shadows don’t have to be cast by you

They are cast by objects too.
