Sundial

Standing
in the sunlight
like a statue
or a shrine
 
in a beauty
consistant
passing shadows
of time

 strength
within an image
unchanging as
as one's mind

showing life's
existance
never
to unwind.

Well Done

Young man I missed the title and had to read again then the sun came out and I could read the whole story as the shadow played with time, In its simplicity I think this is a great write and I will give it 5 Stars for its description of a world event using few words, Yours Ian.T
