It Falls Before, It Follows Behind, Dark...
It falls before , it follows behind , Darkest still when the day is bright ;
3 _sTo light without the shadow we find , And never shadow without the light . It walks when we walk , it runs when we run ,
Froin it we cannot nee away ; Yet it tells which way to look for the sun , — We may turn our back on it any day .
Ever mingles the light and shade , Which makes this human world so dear ;
Sorrow of joy is ever made ! And what were a hope without a fear ? A morning shadow o'er youth is cast ,
And gently softens its blinding glare ; A shadow lengthening across the past ,
_Pixes our fondest memories there . One shadow there is—we see not here
Its breadth of darkness by day surrounded ; Yet , 'tis but the night side of the sphere
Moving into the light unbounded Isa . Craig .
