A green shadow

In the midst of emerald fields,

Where nature's beauty never yields,

Lies a shadow, deep and green,

A sight that's rarely seen.

It dances among the trees,

Whispering secrets on the breeze,

A cloak of verdant hue,

A symbol of life anew.

It stretches across the land,

A guardian, strong and grand,

Protecting all that lies beneath,

From the harshness of the heat.

It's a reminder of the earth's embrace,

A symbol of its endless grace,

For without this green shadow,

Our world would surely fallow.

It's a haven for creatures small,

A shelter for them all,

A place to rest and hide,

From the scorching sun outside.

But this shadow is more than just a shield,

It's a symbol of life, forever sealed,

For without the greenery it holds,

Our world would be barren and cold.

So let us cherish this green shadow,

For it's a gift from nature, we must know,

A reminder of the earth's might,

And the beauty of its green light.
