#As the first drop fell on me
I looked up at the black canvas
gathering and rumbling ominously.
But there was supposed to be another
not far
but right over my head
to defend me against the weather
pattering insane
between me and the rain.
*Did I by any chance
leave my umbrella here, sir?*
I ran to the shopkeeper.
We all suffer this predicament
was his smiling statement
*losing grip over our mind
letting things be left behind*
and then came the mischievous addendum
as if my trouble had inspired his mood
*go for good
once you let them go
woman and umbrella
they never again show.*#
