My Shadow

 I remember one evening noticing how long my shadow was! I was still living in Salem, so I must have been younger than 7 years old. I remember looking on the grass at my shadow and seeing that I had the longest legs and shortest body, if my shadow was to be trusted, but of course it was just natures fun-house mirror! I watched myself step high, or raise my arms up or fisted on my hips just to see how it would look. I don't know how long I played, but it is one of my sharpest (and fondest!) memories of my childhood.
