Secret Shade

I hid my secret below me, beside my feet My secret, my heart Safe from the world that would harm it They said it wasn't worth my bread But I would not listen to a word of it Me and my secret lay side by side In the shade Safe from the summer heat

You have rhythm mastered. And I love the way the poem makes you think.
