Kayod5 Kayode Poet Free verse

You Are My Umbrella

You are my umbrella,
In sun and in rain,
In you I will dwell, my trust;
Like a snail in its shell.

When the siege comes,
And the trouble water pours;
Or the fire becomes wild,
I shall snore and not be afraid.

In my trust I will seek refuge,
Under you I will seek my comfort;
Abide in your faithul promise
To the vanity of my predators.

If I doubt you my confidence
Let  me become impotent prey
In the side pouch of my hunters
You are my trust, you are my bet.

I will dare rain, I will dare sun, 
My umbrella has no hole.

Andrea Dietrich February 23, 2014 at 6:30 PM Nice one, my friend. Which picture did you use for your inspiration? The first one? You have to put the number of the picture to qualify! I chose the fourth one! I really love the last line of this one. Too many guys have holes in their umbrellas. Women are looking for the guys with good umbrellas!!!
