I’m My Umbrella

iScriblr_love

Sheltering my heart,

From malicious rabblement,

I'm my umbrella!

Defending solemnity,

I self sustain my fancies.

This post is written in response to OctPoWriMo Challenge – where you’ll write a “POEM” everyday for 31 days, using the prompt word. Follow this link to learn more about it, see other submissions, and to share your own. Come and join in the fun folks!

Day 15 word prompt is “IF —– WERE AN UMBRELLA!”

Suggested Form – Free verse to answer questions like – What protects you like an umbrella? What shields you? What covers you?

I yet again aimed at writing a TANKA to challenge myself to fit in “what protects me like an UMBRELLA” in just 5 lines and 31 syllables. Hope I did justice!

As always any feedback and advise is more than appreciated!

Love,iScriblr_signature
