Shadows We Poem by Brian Kilpatrick

Shadows we walk between the day and the night
Try as we may we cannot remain out of sight
We rise to go walking wherever there is light
But our favorite time to move is just about midnight
We can change our shape almost whenever we like
Some people play with us during the day and the night
But we are nothing to fear we are just the absence of light
We love to dance but sometimes we do like to give you a terrible fright
You better watch out if we hear you have been naughty not nice
We might just come visit you in your dreams at our favorite time of night
