Listen to poem:
When Walls are Welcome
I have a shadow on the wall as company -
a shadow on the wall that makes me think
of a face that I know,
a landscape that I know or anything else that I know.
Yes, it is a shape that sits upon the wall.
It becomes more and more familiar.
But I am looking at a shadow on the wall,
and it is company because
I do not have any.
Hello - and welcome!
