Shadow Shift at the Shade

The shade shadow has shifted.
Spike did not invent a villain. He looked. Suzy looked with him.
Clue one: cool patch now sat half off the rest area.
Clue two: shade board pins were still true — the sun had walked.
Clue three: cattle silhouettes clustered at the hot edge looking for cool.
Adventure Cap wanted a chase. Thinking Cap habit said gather, then guess once.
Tools reminded: look for marks, compare, check. Tools did not fix alone.
Suzy shifted the board to cover the rest space again and checked soft.

Honest look. Soft fix. Kind end.
Notice sun. Shift board. Soft rest.
