An Umbrella day
Sun splashes her color out
into the sky
opening a wide orange
and red umbrella, a canopy
against the plan of today’s
dark clouds.
Sailors take warning!
It’s a red sky morning!
Sun’s umbrella disappears
as she pushes higher,
fighting for sky space.
Mutual enmity results in shouts,
Tears, tantrums.
My morning paper news,
awaits on my driveway.
Sighing, I break out my own
bright red umbrella, make
a quick rescue run, then rest
inside to spend my day
missing sun, avoiding
chores, watching the rain.
