My Rainbow Paradise

Baby flying rainbow unicorns soaring down by the bridge,
    they are called “Rainicorns” they display such fine courage.
      They battle with the mean Terasacus family almost every night,
        from evolution with deep red eyes and blue talons, ready to fight.

This city in which we live resides inside the Rocky Mountains,
    for they are the color purple with rainbow colored fountains.
      We don't sleep at night because there is caffeine in the water,
        I just prance around with Flora, my rainbow colored daughter.

Underneath the sidewalk made of rainbow crushed pottery,
    tunnels float from the north end where they play the lottery. 
      Gambling is illegal so it's hush-hush between the city dwellers,
        you get caught, you take the flying rainbow and become interstellar.

Anything green has no gravity, just float and hold on what they can,
    many trees, shrubs, and gramma's green wig float far from the land.
      Astrology lives in our neighborhood with Aries, Libra and Capricorn,
        they are cousins with the beautiful elegant baby Rainicorns.

There's no such thing as clocks, for time doesn't even matter,
    there's a constant rainbow light aviation all the way from Saturn.
      We aren't carnivores or herbivores we just eat rainbow rocks,
        we don't ever wear a pair of tennis shoes, but wear rainbow socks.

I am just giving you a sneak peek into my imaginary paradise,
    so cute and colorful, but lets keep it quiet, we don't like to advertise.
      What a graceful life we have full of vivacious colors high and low,
        the fantasy we live in was all started by the very first rainbow.
