Borrowed Umbrella Blue

An original lyric about a modest kindness.

Warm · Original lyrics · Fictional voice · Lyrics only

You lent the blue umbrella,
I brought it back at four.
The clouds had moved to somewhere
Beyond the grocer's door.

Keep the weather, pass the shelter,
Let a little kindness go.
It can cross a quiet landing
Without anybody's show.

I dried it by the window,
I wrote a little note.
No debt below the handle,
No promise in the coat.

Take a moment

What gives the kindness a light touch?
