Shadows of Life

When life fades from sight,it never fades from the mind
Or heart and soul that embraced it so passonitely
It remains as a memory, a ghost that haunts these two that loved it so
Whispering to them of sorrow and joys long past
Of others that it has joined or will join it on it's otherwordly voyage
It vexes you as do they all but rejoice
They too wither and decay for they are only shadows
Shadows of joy
Shadows of laughter
shadows of sorrow
shadows of hate
Shadows of love
Shadows of life

Dedicated to my dog Wolfman "Wolfie" Ward. I'll treasure every shadow you've left behind.
