Shadow man
Keep your wits about you.
And watch you don’t forget.
You’ll find him waiting patient.
In the shady, cold and wet.
He doesn’t care for whispers.
or for shouts if it comes to that.
But he rather likes the purring
of a strange and wary cat.
be sure to bring a gift
if you venture to the lake
keep your wits about you

for it’s quite the risk to take
so many lives are lost
when they breach the water shallows
the icey water has them.
cold and sharp as arrows
but the man will come to guide you
if you’re sure you won’t forget
he’s waiting there still patient
in the shady cold and wet
