Using An Umbrella As a Cane
She walks with a limp, it’s not a fable
She can’t walk normal, she’s just not able
She will always move along in this way
Her limp leaves her lame every single day
She moves along with a closed umbrella
Uses it as a brace, something extra
She meanders along down the cold street
She walks along with the cane near her feet
Down the old street she walks into a shop
Hearing each step as she moves with a flop
After getting her things she moves along
Walking back to her abode with a song
No one sees her but no, she’s not insane
Woman just walks with a limp and a cane
