Catch a Rainbow

Bright colors
 after 
       the 
           storm
     bring 
memories 
             in their wake
A brillant scene 
   in the evening sky
causes the mind
     to turn back
  towards the past
Catch a rainbow before 
     you pass!
Let the brillant light
       into your soul
This unreal city 
        may frighten us at
times
  But there is always the 
sky above
       to shelter us, to keep us
safe
   Yes, the sheltering sky
brings us rain, heat, rainbows 
       Peace is what we're after
  and joy is what 
we desire
     Our eyes must look  upwards!
