Sunshine and Shadow


Sunny Sunshine rose and smiled,

as she peeked into the tree.

She said, "Good morning, Shadow,

would you stay and play with me?"


Shadow just ran to and fro,

as a cloud came tumbling by.

A dark, small frown crossed Sunny's face,

"He's hiding, I wonder why?"


"Shadow, won't you stay and play?

I promise, I won't cheat."

Shadow laughed and said, "okay,

let's play hide and seek."


Sunny searched all the day long,

never finding where he hid.

“Safe!” he laughed, rushing out,

as over the hill she slid.
