George Seal Poet Light Verse

Copycat

Each time we both go out to play,
    It's always on a sunny day.
    Where sometimes i am tall or small
    When animated on a wall.
    Or if i fall upon the floor,
    It's just something i've done before.
    Where people never ever see
    And step unnoticed onto me.
    Just for a laugh we alter shape,
    To change into a fearsome ape.
    Or maybe we both raise a smile,
    His silhouette's my crocodile.
    Then with his hands, i flutter by,
    When i'm his shadow's butterfly.
