As I look up in the Sky Following the recent bout of Rain A magic crystal Rainbow has appeared Just like a narrow window pane The multi-coloured majesty Glows brightly in the sky It makes me stop and wonder From whence, and how and why It has suddenly arisen Out from its pot of gold That lingers at the Rainbows end Or so the stories told It is like a Crystal Staircase Heaven sent for me to climb So that I may disappear When it is my time The different hues that shine so bright Red, Green, Blue and Yellow Even Orange on the odd occasion The whole sight just looks so mellow One moment my Rainbow is in the Sky The next it has gone away Just as mysteriously as it first appeared To return hopefully, another rainy day
