Shadow

 

-------Shadow-------

 

It is one of those sweet 

and serendipitous 

ways of summer

 

How 

when the sun 

has reached its height

 

The leaves 

too 

are fullest.

 

There is little else 

I could hope to do 

in a day

 

Than give thanks 

to these small 

and wonderful things

 

While resting 

in the shadow 

of a tree.
