Under My Own Umbrella Poem by Susan Lacovara
Under My Own Umbrella
Rain swells within heavy hanging clouds
A downpour coming
A drenching wash so certain
I welcome it
Might the run off puddlings
Wash away the footprints
Cemented in a past that no longer has roots
Let the forecasted change of weather
Be embraced and accepted
As necessary cleansing
You forgot to leave me an umbrella
When you left me in the storm
Soaked and so very cold
For far too long
My heart has finally drip dried
I move in the direction of warm breezes
And a break away from the cloudy days

Amazing, how the memories are emerging, how certain words can awake apparently forgotten memories from one's subconscious mind...I was enticed by the title of your poem, which instinctively reminded me of Rihanna's song...not exactly the kind of music I listen to, but... this particular song it did have an enormous impact on me at the time...your poem resonates perfectly with me...I very much enjoyed reading your poem, and Hello again, as you were the first person to encounter here, at Poemhunter in 2014. I am glad to read from you again, Susan.
