Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Free verse

Shadows In the Snow

Sunshine shows shadows
Imprinted in the snow
I saw the shadows
Imprinted in the snow
never seen before
A tree with boughs

Shadowed in the white snow
Sitting in the snow
Near the tall bare tree
A cat sat in the snow
Then the shadow changed
Into mountains steeps

With a view of water
The waves moved to shore
A girl sits watching
Birds were seen flying
The sky is clear blue
She enjoys the scene

The shadows were seen
By the sunshine bright
Shadows everywhere
By Mother nature
These were created 
By her handy work

Phyllis Babcock March 12, 2022 at 3:21 PM I sometimes watch the shadows on the house across the street. They have ornaments out and as the sun passes in the afternoon different patterns appear on the house. Will have to look in the snow as we have a lot of that white stuff around. love phyl Darlene De Beaulieu March 12, 2022 at 3:53 PM Hello Phyllis, Sometimes the shadow shos a house with a face of a man. i In front of the man is a shape of a dog. Then suddenly the shadow changesto something else. Hugs.
