even in the shade, it is sunny
By Candy Cain
A world without shadows wouldn't let us see it's depth
the sun creates the shadows
the contrast crafts the stories
Like feathered pens of poets past
or thoughts we lock away
or maybe experiences held too tight
what I see is what I write
with an ink I've made from shadows
and this little light of mine.

The World is full of contrasts and contradictions. You can't have light without the dark, you can't have good without evil, and so on and so forth. The best thing that we can do is call it like we see it. Very nicely done, darlin'. Rebs:).

it's telling that your last line is a line from a children's "Jesus" song... it gave your piece a powerful impact for those who look beyond the "norm"... Kudos! ~worm~
