Under the Red Umbrella

I recall the red umbrella, and your arms wrapped around me; the rain fell but I was cozy in your arms so strong. You had taken us to Paris and I felt like Cinderella, with prince charming- and our dog Tea; we walked past shops and cafes on streets long, and you softly sang me our love song. Then, we had stopped and you held me in a kiss. the street was empty as the rain fell, fell, fell; I leaned into you wanting to become part. You were my true blue love and my forever bliss, under this umbrella with you I wanted to ever dwell; with your beating heart on my beating heart, oh, this scene would make nice art. __________________________ November 2, 2018 Poetry/Rhyme/Under the Red Umbrella Copyright Protected, ID 11- 1082-232-02 All Rights Reserved, 2018, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, The Red Umbrella sponsor Eve Roper, Judged 2018 First Place
