My impressions of an umbrella are many and varied:
An Englishman using one as a cane
A woman carrying one as a weapon
The thank-you gift for membership in the Chicago Botanic Garden
An oversized one that golfers carry in their bag
A complimentary one at the door of hotels, ships and restaurants
One used to provide shade for those sensitive to the sun
One folded in a woman’s purse - just in case
Umbrellas made for your enjoyment
I can’t think that anyone would be interested in how I made this umbrella. Suffice it to say one might confirm that after a rain, for which we use an umbrella, we often see a rainbow. And perhaps a pot of gold. The rain is most helpful in making flowers.
