Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Imagism

In the Same Evening the Shadow Reveals

The second Shadow reveals
The spotlight reveals 
In the brightness a shadow 
is seen
On a wooden chair
Is wooden arms and legs

The back rest cushion
A turquoise color
Head and the sear
On the seat are
Two bunnies ornaments

When the spotlight shines
The shadow appears
A man and a woman
they stare at each other
Coming closer slowly
When they are closer
They embrace into a
Passionate kiss

this is the second shadows seen

Joseph P. DiMino October 4, 2023 at 8:41 AM Without light we are all shadow -- shadow is object and not merely the casting. And yet, there is an innate relationship...whether sun, moon or stars, or the vast darkness between, somehow, some why, we sense divine illuminating presence. Lovely write, my friend. Profoundly beautiful! Darlene De Beaulieu October 4, 2023 at 10:48 AM Hello Joe, Thank you Joe. This shadow tells a story if two peop9le in love. Thank you for a lovely comment. Enjoyyour day my friend. /Darlene\

Sam Kauffman October 3, 2023 at 10:24 AM Very thought provoking, Darlene, as shadows are born from light that can't penetrate solid objects! They seem to have a life of their own - a life you have profoundly captured. Nice work! Blessings! Darlene De Beaulieu October 4, 2023 at 10:51 AM Hello Sam, Thank you. I see these romantic couple every night. I have no idea where the shadow comes from. Blessings my my friend./Darlene\
