Summer Shadow

siting in the room
under the air cooler,
in the scorching summer,
I remember
the summer shadow

under the tree
near by the field,
upon the cot,
full of water, earth pot
the fallen sapling 
recalls memory of
the summer shadow.

holding branches of the tree
all children swing 
in the summer shadow

those  scorching,
in the heat of summer,
celebrate the glory of
the summer shadow

sun is heating
glacier is melting,
raising the temperature,
in the sea,
earth is sinking,
requires 
the summer shadow
