Shadow Man

He walks in the World
   a shadow....
When he chooses , his shadow
   covers your life.
It covers all parts filling your life
   with laughter
   with joy, with fellowship.
Like the shadow of the afternoon
   it covers all of your world.

But when he chooses, he also leaves
   as quickly as he appeared
And all that is left is a memory
   of the shadow he cast
For he is the shadow man.
