Love Poem: Under the Red Umbrella

Under the Red Umbrella

I recall the red umbrella,
             and your arms wrapped around me;
the rain fell but I was cozy in your arms so strong.
You had taken us to Paris and I felt like Cinderella,
                          with prince charming-  and our dog Tea;
we walked past shops and cafes on streets long,
and you softly sang me our love song.
      Then, we had stopped and you held me in a kiss.
             the street was empty as the rain fell, fell, fell;
                         I leaned into you wanting to become part.
You were my true blue love and my forever bliss,
             under this umbrella with you I wanted to ever dwell;
       with your beating heart on my beating heart,
             oh, this scene would make nice art.
