my rainbow

I'll paint you a rainbow to hang on the wall,

To brighten your day when shadows fall.

On a canvas of joy outlasting the years,

With a soft brush of sweetness to dry  your tears.

I'll paint you a rainbow with colours of smiles,

That glow with sincerity over the miles.

On a palette of words I tenderly blend,

Tones into treasures of sunlight and wind.

I'll paint you a rainbow that reaches so wide,

Your sighs and your sorrows will vanish inside.

And deep in the centre of each different hue,

A memory fashioned especially for you.

So lift up your eyes, for suspended above,

A rainbow designed by my fingers with love.
