Red Umbrella

Red umbrella, pink raincoat and galoshes
Hopping from puddle to puddle, giggling after the splashes
Puppy dog, dolly, and wagon in tow
Raindrops, sunshine and a beautiful rainbow
Mommy and Daddy happy as they can be
Enjoying the rain with their little lady

Tim, I can picture you as the Grandfather of this child as you watched her, along with her parents, frolicking in the puddles left by the rain. As the Grandfather of 9, I revel in seeing them unobtrusively and without forethought do what they do and thanking God for allowing me to live to see it. Beautiful poem from the type of man I just described.

That is such a cute poem Timothy. You have captured a very loving family walking the rain with their precious little handful. Well done, really enjoyed. Best regards, Jennifer
