Running down the drain
Around in the City of London
Without the feeling of boredom

“Who am I that I have to sing under an umbrella? These people are my fans, and if they can stand in the rain to hear me sing, I can stand in the rain” Bobby Darin

Umbrella 

Step under my umbrella
We can sing in a cappella
Like we were the Ella
Just out of hella
Lady or a fella

Let’s create a novella
You can play the Stella
Prance around like a gazella
Maybe invite the Cinderella
Even if she is vanilla

There is no dilemma
Here what I tell ‘Ya
It’s quite the Rockwell’a
So step under my umbrella
Just out of the hella

Storing away the files
Of possible tales
For later to be shared

Here and there catching
In the little cafe

“Never mind the wind and rain
You know me to be quite vain
I will always strike a pose
And deliver you the daily dose
So be prepared”
The plant declared
“I shall only do this once today!”

“Into each life some rain must fall” Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Droplets

Like miniature optics
Formed with liquid
The translucent droplets
On the leaf and branch
Doing a slow dance
Watching, observing,
Falling into a trance
