Shadows..... Poem by prashant shaurya

Shadows.....

Rating: 4.8


In the night
when moon's white
I see creatures
very bright...

And i delve deep
At length to peep
historic shadows
that make me weep....

Shadows that had been
till yesterday seen
in God's glory
yet feared within....

Wish I could fly
Above the sky
And meet the Creator
Who made them die....

This is a wonderful concept with rhymes, imagery and lines that beautifully go, 'In the night / when moon's white / I see creatures / very bright...'
