My New Friend

Exhausted and tired,

I looked at the sun

Smiling a wicked smile,

Ruthless and adamant

It shined so bright

Engulfing all my energy

murky and thirsty

I craved for water

Here and there

I looked for shops

To buy my ecstasy

Running across the road

I found salvation under a tree

Opening a bottle of water

I Unfolded the umbrella

While waiting for the bus

I had a partner under my umbrella

Hesitant and Frightened

Happy and easy after I smiled

Slowly and stealthily

He moved closer and closer

I shared my umbrella and the water

He wagged his tail in gratitude

I made a loyal friend

So sweet and lovely

So decent and caring

Everyday he waited to see me

To share my umbrella and love
