Shadow

Friendship is the shadow of the evening, which increases with the setting sun of life.
Jean de La Fontaine


My shadow I have never noticed you
You have been my faithful companion
From the early sun rise till the sunset
You stuck to me without an opinion.


You have been like a good friend
Your length increases with the sun set
And when the night turns truly dark
You are invisible but are still present.


I grew in the shadow of my father
And my son grew in the shadow of me
When the noon sun is bestowing wrath
We seek shade below the Banyan tree.

You have sheltered the time less traveler
And no one says a good word for you
Well you also have been taken for granted
Unconditional help is acknowledged by few.- Vasant Khisty


We all cast a shadow of our character. God made hot sun and also a shadow for us to rest below. When times are tough we seek some ones shadow to rest and start our journey when the Sun goes down.
