Shadow and Light In this world of shadow and light I walked from day, into night; From fields of color; Into streets of horror; From sunsets and sun risings; Into shelters; into alleyway hidings; From where a dove was bloodied from her fall; To where the Ravyn's tears are scribbled on a broken wall. Shadows and Light Merged, then parted; Waves of time returning to where they started. Light chases the shadows from the crevices of a heart's corridors.

Shadow and Light In this world of shadow and light I walked from day, into night; From fields of color; Into streets of horror; From sunsets and sun risings; Into shelters; into alleyway hidings; From where a dove was bloodied from her fall; To where the Ravyn's tears are scribbled on a broken wall. Shadows and Light Merged, then parted; Waves of time returning to where they started. Light chases the shadows from the crevices of a heart's corridors. Where once, fed by pain and sin, The shadow grew in strength, again and again. Now surrendered, my life is new; The light has grown and misery's taunts are few. For He, on that sacrificial day, gathered the shadows; took the pain away Now when the world builds its storms, His love gives me shelter; His light keeps me warm. For the reader who wishes to journey from the darkness to the light, with side glances at the grey shadows between day and night, I offer this path of varying shadows of grey, With turns and twistings along the way. Inside, you will find poetry of various styles, prose and a short story. I have also included a special tribute section devoted to "The Ravyn," a very special lady, whose writings on the Poetrypages.com have inspired, and revealed a spirit that wouldn't quit in the most terrible of times; and to my mother, Sarah Jane Watson, who wrote as a hobby only occasionally, but through those few writings, became my inspiration.
