Your Bright Umbrella

the door has been closed

you stand outside in the rain

soaked in your despair

open your bright umbrella

storms pass; walk sprightly onward

Hi Andrea, Congratulations on your win in the contest. An excellent Tanka. I find these types of forms really hard to do. You have done an excellent write on the theme, a different but wonderful write. I Love the vision, then i do Love to be out in the rain, helps me think. Hugs....Mike. Definitely a fave and a seven.

Very uplifting and inspiring, and also appropriate in a way, as we are transitioning from a gray winter into spring... Beautifully penned, Andrea. Good luck in the contest!
