Does this "poem" sound natural in English? It seems not written by a native speaker to me

I judge it by "but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines", which can be reduced to "but you find shadow in the sun."

What is your opinion?

Context:

You say that you love rain,
but you open your umbrella when it rains.
You say that you love the sun,
but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines.
You say that you love the wind,
but you close your windows when wind blows.
This is why I am afraid, you say that you love me too.

I'd say shady spot. Or you seek the shade.

Yes, both shady spot and shadow are native, but shadow spot isn't, really.
