SHADE TREE
basking in warm summer days
hosting backyard gatherings
witnessing family love always
saluting the love with leaves fluttering
spicey barbecue aromas not under cover
wafting through the air filling the senses
ongoing anticipation and laughter hover
stories and games in progress on benches
long yarns from mom came all day
all gather round to absorb these plays
shade tree now hosting shivering beauty
longs for the chance to bask in summer duty
