we catch the drama and feel the sweet lore of the ghost moon behind closed doors when night pulls down her shade

                       threw a shadow over you and me

Either Side of a Tree Shade

From banished to a desert
To well off, caressed
Tropic; splenderous.
Either side of a tree shade.
Summer's. One confessed
As ubiquitous!

Premium Member Shade

When love is newly shaded, 
vermin gnaw the heart away.
But they're never really sated
they bore deep into the brain
until all hope crumbles away.

A Change of Shade

The baby walking
Near with flowers in its eyes
A bloom for life's cares

Hands luring the child
While the heart hisses a kiss
Swords from the fire rise

Premium Member Summer Heat


Peter pan who lived by the sea,
Found summer as hot as can be.
He sat in the shade,
With cool lemonade,
Birds dropped waste on him from a tree.

Spring comes in coloured blooms.
Warmer days are finally here upon us.
Sign of things to come.

Shade

Shade     
                Damnable darkness 
             Following, chilling ground 
          Where confusion, doubts dwell 
                      Shade

Stayed In Shade

Stayed In Shade

Stayed in Heaven in the shade;
With rest of my ancestors laid;
God me did greet;
Glad would meet;
Great place for me had made.

Premium Member SWEET BREEZE AND A PATCH OF SHADE

May we be blessed to treat everyone we meet 
in exactly the same way
As if we’re offering them a sweet breeze and a patch of shade
on the hottest summer day.

In shaded modest forests grow
the tiniest white bells pure as snow.
Their wild perfume will stop the show
beneath the charm of any rainbow.

Shade and Happiness

I will allow my past to stay dark. 

So those memories will shade me from the bright sun. 

That sometimes blinds me with happiness.

Made in the Shade

Ruby Begonia sits in seaside shade
Reading a book and sipping lemonade
Slathers on sunscreen 
Her freckles unseen
Miss Ruby won't join the "Nude Beach" parade.

This Place Or the Shade of a Real Man

There is this  place,
where the sun is dark
and the silence hoarse.

The place in which lies on the ground
without strength to uprise
the shade of a fighter,
the shade of a real man.

In the Shade of Trees - anacreontic

Softly, one grey spider weaves
underneath the heart-shaped leaves.

Upside-down, cicadas cling.
All the day they loudly sing.

I stand still beneath them all.
They are little. I am small.

Shade

They were white once
Until the hue of rage
Tinted them pink
As colors blend
Muted vibrance keeps
It shone a fair ware
Very fashionable they say
And I grew a fondness
For that particular shade

           frost grows on the pane
                creating a most artful shade
                     then, gone, free of cost
