Summer Shadows

Woke up this morning to a cool 68 degree clear blue sky day. Summer is officially over in the desert. 
I have a thing for shadows. Big or small, on concrete, wood, snow or water...

Reflection (a palindromic poem)

Still waters, deep, 

surface like glass reflecting green above; 

and below are trees, sky, 

shadows, leaves, sunlight, 

moving and motionless.

Here silent images shimmer now, 

and - air breathing suddenly - break.

Unbidden feelings confuse

reality and fantasy.

Which is which? 

Fantasy and reality confuse; 

feelings unbidden break, suddenly breathing air; 

and now shimmer images, 

silent here, motionless

and moving....

(sunlight leaves shadows) .

Sky, trees are

below - and above -

green, reflecting, glass-like surface.

Deep waters, still. 

Paul Hansford

I say goodbye to summer shadows...
