Shades of Gray

By Carol Keene

I want my shadow back on the ground beside me,
Not clinging to me, so I have to lug it around
Through the puddles of this doleful, dreary day.
I want it to pat the pavement, fondle the floor,
Caress the curb, grope the ground, and
Stop hanging on me like a whiny four-year old!
