A constant companion my shadow is with me,
An imperfect imitation my shadow is with me.
Everything I do it copies that ,
A great fan of mine it is in fact .
In the morning and evening it appears tall,
When sun is overhead it becomes small .
Some times it makes me scared almost,
Creeps and follows like a phantom or ghost.
My shadow is with me wherever I go,
My shadow is with me that I know.
