A Walk with You

entry picture

We invited the sun to join us.

To come out from behind that sullen cloud

and share with us late in the morning.

 

With amber light breaking through,

in tow as company for the day,

our hands were together and warmed

but not by the busy sun.

 

No offense was taken,

our yellow star assured us,

as we walked between the shadows

being painted all around us.

"...as we walked between the shadows

This is a great visual... instead of describing the light directly and saying you simply are walking in sunshine, you give us a such a precise focus of the lifting of your spirits together by walking between the shadows as if the sun was purposefully spotlighting the two of you, or better, keeping the gray away - much more powerful. Bravo.
