My Shadow and Me

The morning sun was peeking through the trees from across the pasture as I stepped out for my morning walk today. The heavy frost on the ground sparkled and the chilly temperature could be felt on my face. The smoke rose from roof top to roof top and there was a smell of a fireplace burning near by. The sun rose higher and higher in the sky and I see you catch up with me as you seldom have on many of my morning walks. We walk along in silence, listening to the birds waking up and taking a glance of an occasional squirrel scatter up a tree as we walk past. The minutes pass with each step we take and the long road ahead shows you pass me as if to race home.

 We turn the corner ahead and you walk beside me again. Our pace is in sink with each step we take and our thoughts become as one. Just a few more steps and we part our ways for the day...
See you tomorrow if the sun is shinning and your not busy playing in the shade.
