Rainbow





                                Kaleidoscopes of colour
                               Drip as ribbons from the sky
                                Though rain is barely over
                              Still the ground begins to dry
                              The angry clouds depart now
                             Leaving sunshine in their wake
                            Birds leave their sheltered hollows
                           As their homeward flights they take


                       She rides the troubled skies on ribboned wings
                          To offer up the hope of brighter things
                         She leaves like she was never there at all
                             A whisper in a moment magical

                               Soft breeze begins to bristle
                             Stirring droplets from their nests
                              Forced to tumble into puddles
                              Where they wither as they rest
                              The sunshine beats relentless
                            Drawing moisture through the air
                              And silently the rainbow fades
                                 Was it ever really there
                       She rides the troubled skies on ribboned wings
                          To offer up the hope of brighter things
                         She leaves like she was never there at all
                             A whisper in a moment magical

                                Rainbow, smiling up high
                                      Rainbow…..
                                Rainbow, lighting the sky
                                      Rainbow…..


                       She rides the troubled skies on ribboned wings
                          To offer up the hope of brighter things
                         She leaves like she was never there at all
                             A whisper in a moment magical
