Bringing My Shadow Home Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Bringing My Shadow Home

Rating: 4.5


Sometimes, when sitting alone,
I feel your lightness come upon me

Watching my shadow run
toward the brightness of your smile

And like a child,
lost again for the first time

I am carried away in your moment,
—as you bring my shadow home

(Strafford Pennsylvania 1976: 2nd Anniversary to Kathy)

Brilliantly luminous. That so-oft ambiguous concept we label love, painted here in strokes of light. Compelling and original.
