I Chased a Rainbow

I Chased A Rainbow I chased a rainbow across brilliant sky I ran blinded without even asking why Colors blasted my deepest thoughts apart sky a shining rainbow did swiftly yield a journey I flew into with a hurried start chasing a work of art into a flowery field So easy to feel the aura and singing hues as I raced blissfully on my merry way great mystery awaiting without any clues a longing sent that my heart must obey Diamonds and gold I did not ever find a glory of mercies was what I found love soon took hold of my lonely mind as divine music gave out lovely sound Dancing fairies next took their bows as I scampered across and all around ships appeared with such stately prows golden anchors clinking on silver ground I caught a rainbow Spirit with a plea increase the love of precious life in me Robert J. Lindley 07-28-2014 This came to me as I was waking this fine morn. Lack of time to write it down , I mentally finished it later today. I saw rainbow light as I woke this morning. Methinks my Muse was shouting at me! lol

you've got one nice little leprechaun floatin' around in your crawl space! Nice write of Rainbows and life. PLUS, sir your comments are SUper Nice and gave me goose bumps. Writing is a curse of words ticker taping around my head and they wont shut up until I write them down. When someone tells me the stuff is good, I don't know how to respond. But the way you say it was real cool. Thanks.
