Under The Green Umbrella

By: Chelsea Arsenal

The cold wind

Of the dark afternoon of the 26th

Kisses my sweet face.

A gift of nature,

That little something,

Makes my heart alive.

The wind, the breath of life,

Energizes my weak body.

As I take the path to a magical place,

I saw him once more

And everything changed.

The sun got out,

I catch my breath.

That feeling inside,

I so cannot explain.

I was in deep bliss

In that very special moment.

He is the man,

The one walking towards me,

The true love of my life,

Waiting patiently outside the school’s blue gate,

My father,

the only man in my life,

Under the green umbrella…
