Great alliteration in sheds a swathe of sunburnt skin. Great imagery throughout but I especially liked sleepy lizard edges.

Tony: creative gathering of words to describe a summer day in a very hot climate. Your thoughts are clear and I could picture the creatures searching for a bit of shade and waiting until nightfall for a respite from the heat. Beautiful poem; great writing. Linda

Comment from adewpearl
love the proximate rhyme of leaves/breeze
beautiful descriptive detail of setting that appeals to a range of senses
nice touches of alliteration
splotched with gray indifference - a good example of how you merge physical descriptions with emotional content
I love the sleepy lizard as it edges... wonderful way to set the tone and add some life to the scene
good personification of the awakening shadows
This is another six but now I have no more sixes left for the week :-) Brooke
