POEM STARTER

Two strangers caught in the downpour share an umbrella.

Craft a poem or short story around this idea.

Golden Eyes And A Warm Smile

I ran, trying to find shelter.

Using my new jacket as an umbrella.

It coveres my eyes, I couldn’t see where I was going.

Then, I ran into you.

You cought me before I could fall, holding me against you.

You look down at me, I look up at you, and our eyes meet.

I have never seen such a beautiful brown, gold flecks in them.

Dancing.

I catch myself thinking of what they would look like in the sun.

You smile warmly at me.

I can feel myself blushing.

You let go of me, only then I notice I don’t feel any rain, I look up and see you have an umbrella.

It’s still raining around us.

But I’m safe with you.

We talk for a while under your umbrella, waiting for the rain to stop.

It feels to soon when it does.

I want to ask for your name, your number.

But I’m to shy, oh why do I have to be so shy?

Why so awkward?

Can’t I do anything right?

But you don’t ask either, so maybe I did do something wrong.

I say you thank you.

You tell me it was no problem.

And smile at me again, I wish I could make you smile like that all the time.

But I don’t know you, you don’t know me.

Soon we have to go our separate ways.

We say our farewells.

We turn our own ways.

And we will probably never seen each other again.

But I’ll always remember the boy with the Golden Eyes And A Warm Smile who shared his umbrella with me on a rainy day.

The end.
