Shadows

Shadows
She takes a breath and steps away,
from shadows that are dim and grey,
towards the faded morning sun,
behind the clouds like garments spun.

Though veils of mist obscure the view
and paint the land a sombre hue,
the fields must yet be ploughed and sown
and tended while the crops are grown.

For work, she must again prepare,
assuming her allotted share.
Her strength, she gathers to contend
with all that she must apprehend.
