Blue Haze

Deep in heat, a slice of shade
Runs from stern sun; damp bare glade
Cools too few, too thin the dew
One more lost door, blue haze fade...

Michelle, I haven't tried this form. How hard it seems to be limited only to one-syllable words! You did it well, though. Nice to have a little heat from the sun in the middle of cold winter!

Thank you, John - I recently had the thought 'slice of shade' when I saw one thin tree branch with a tiny bit of shade, so the poem grew from there
