Shadow Shot Sunday 2

Shadows cannot see themselves in the mirror of the sun - Eva Perron.................. Worry gives a small thing a big shadow - Swedish proverb ............................ Take everything that’s bright and beautiful in you and introduce it to the shadow side of yourself… When you are able to say, ‘I am … my shadow as well as my light,’ the shadow’s power is put in service of the good. - Parker J. Palmer........................You can only come to the morning through the shadows. - J.R.R. Tolkien

Shadowy Skull

Elk skull, Kaibab National Forest, Northern Arizona

a grim reminder
of the end that comes to all—
bleached sun-bitten skull

My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.

Shadowy Corral

Hubbell Trading Post, Ganado, Arizona

looking longingly
at an empty wooden trough—
two hungry horses

Through Sand and Shadow

An arroyo in Northern Arizona, USA

Through sand and shadow
I follow crooked pathways—
long is the journey.
