Umbrella Poem

Sitting in the rain on the other side of the green wall made of leaves

I watched a bobbing black dome on the other side

That appeared to be a black umbrella

It moved along like it was swept up by a current

And it was floating away from me

I watched it go and wondered who was under the umbrella

So I rushed to the other side of the wall dividing us

To meet the man who walked with the umbrella in the rain

And when I arrived to look around the corner

There was nothing, save a footprint in the mud
