Picture Prompt- Human and Shadows

Have you ever seen a man or woman without a shadow? Some people will arguably tell you yes but is it naturally true for someone not to possess or own shadow?

I have been made to believe that one’s shadow has something to do with the supernatural. Hence, a man who’s shadowless is either soulless or dead.

There are many wonders of nature especially that which is related to man. The awesome science behind a man’s shadow is amazing. One thing that sweeps me off my feet is that it takes just a considerable amount of light and darkness to cast a shadow.

Join this awe. Let us ride on a chariot of imagination with our words as propellers. I am Abuh Monday Eneojo. Welcome to Daily Wisdom Words Picture Writing Exercise.

SANDS & SHADOWS

Feel the wind frolicking on your face,
And the sunlight smiling around your eyes
Let your feet romance the sand
Tattooing your memories on the shadow
To let this moment in perpetuity
Be lovingly called Heaven on Earth
-Neel Trivedi

BLACK AND SHADOW

It has been said that a man who cast  no shadow is without a soul. I seriously do not know if there is any truth in that but all i know is that all living things have shadow.

You may have a contrary view- that’s okay. You can share it with us on the prompt. Let us go straight to the prompt:
