Sky, Lighthouse, Umbrella

someone else's yella umbrella, nantucket, summer 2010 (diana f+)

One summer I had a friend who loved the phrase "yellow umbrella,"

Only of course she said, "yella umbrella,"

As one must.

She confessed, this summer friend of mine,

That she bought umbrellas only in yellow.

As one should.

So I, always on the lookout for keen ideas,

Was so taken with this idea that for years, 

I bought only yella umbrellas, too.
