Do you mean like the shade of a tree where people huddle under during a scorching day to find relief?

Maybe it's the title of a young adult novel I haven't heard of. That wouldn't surprise me. Most of those books have titles like that.
Either way, it's the name of this short piece. 😜

The combination of the dirt, humidity and roof tar smeared various shades of black and gray all over his body and clothes.
