hand in hand...light and darkness must be shared.
The directive sun casts my soul today� as light casts a shadow upon the sidewalk. And it is within this silhouette� that I surround my being in all its brilliance. As the sun journeys� burning distance around the heavens� my shadow also travels slowly� in the company of the days light. Yet� when the twilight amber of my thought� realizes the sun�s decision to travel beyond the promise of my physical transport� awakening the light of new shadows in another part of the world� I disappear. With no longer shadow for company� I fly with mercurial speed� toward the stars of night� and the open arms of the moon�s opalescence. � 2003 Copyrights of John W Leko All Rights Reserved

You've captured it well: after the "glare" of full day, there's nothing more freeing than that moonlight and stars of night.... I know I prefer it for creativity

The life given off by both of these lights....
We meet many suns and moons in our daily travels. Gravity is a wonderful attractive force between objects.

There is, I believe, a lot more to this poem than shadows. My insight is "our life."

This is beautiful and for a shadow, the life in it's existance suddenly has a voice. So beautiful that, when I walk outside here, I will respect my shadow.
