Shade-Trees, Clothes Pegs, Wet Clothes Outside,

love Shade-trees © Hung branches show new leaf-bud coats Spring rains draw forth their foliage Full leaved arches open spread above Summer lovers shade! clothes Pegged Wash © Clothes hang outside to dry clean Their colours shout their glory Sheets snap and shirts bloat outside Pant legs dance and twist! clothes Wet Clothes © Strong fragrant breezes flow hotly And caress to dry wet cloth Snapping all the pegged washing Smelling of wash soap. clothes Closed Pegs Clutching pegs on clothing lines Hang washed cloth by their corners Summer time blown breezes touch-dry Birds void while perching!
