Red Umbrella

 

In going through my papers, I came upon a picture that was included with a frame I bought. I have no idea why I kept it, and at first i thought, "Why am I keeping this??" But then, I found it lovely, and decided to write some lettering to put over it.

I wasn't sure what to write (something about Paris? Nah... to trite), and then I decided to focus on the red umbrella. And to my surprise, a lovely poem emerged. This is only part of it.

"It's raining, it's peaceful. I want to venture out, to use my red umbrella."

There are so many directions I could go with this (a short story perhaps?), but for now, I'll keep it to my poem.

Posca markers on Vellum paper.
