MY UMBRELLA

sokibgb

I went shopping the other day

Cannot resist a bargain

Bought myself an umbrella

Although the sun was shining

Had lunch and then left the mall

And to my big surprise

The sun was gone, the sky was gray

It was pouring rain outside

 

My brand new umbrella saved the day

The cold hale felt like pellets

In all my life that was the day

I was ready to face the weather

Since then, I've walked in rainy days

But now I am prepared

For I no longer walk alone

I'm holding my umbrella

    Soki... Like your new umbrella; I am more of a canvas hat man myself. Well done... In the first stanza, missed the letter N in the word lunch; that will be three laps around the park and carry the umbrella with you. BWP... James...

      Thank you BWP for reading and commenting on my poem. Also for spotting my typo and letting me know. Instead of doing three laps around the park I did three laps around the pool and then sat down under my unbrella LOL Have a wonderful evening, soki

      I applaud your poem and your desire to be ready for the changing weather

        Thank you bigwolf. In my family I'm famous for losing umbrellas all over the place, therefore I am forever getting drenched. This time I even surprised myself. Hoping I can hang on to this one, soki

          keep a hold onto your umbrella
          would a wet rose still smell as sweet

          • sokibgb

            Yes if you call it dewy instead of wet .LOL

            • bigwolf

              you would not become dewy, someone would pick you and admire you
