Rainbow Village

There is a beautiful little village Down a long rainbow coloured country lane Known to only a few Where collective colourful characters reign The residents of Rainbow Village Are a creative colourful bunch Who meet every week religiously At the local Village Inn for Sunday lunch Mr Red is the local policeman He is driven and a natural born leader Decisive, firm but fair Authoritative while following police procedure Policeman Red married Miss White The villages well loved librarian An independent calm gentle soul A compassionate revered humanitarian Together they have a daughter A little girl called Pink who is ten years old A playful ,sensitive, loving child Adventurous and bold Dr Brown is the villages doctor A warm natured, comforting, reliable man Who is married to Dr Blue the local veterinarian A kind ,caring dependable bloke who will help anyone he can Miss Purple is the towns local artist Beautiful, talented and unique Unbelievably imaginative and creative Her colourful creativity is displayed on every cobbled street Mr Green is Rainbow Villages resident gardener A young man totally at one with nature and harmony The village is abound with happy, bright colourful flora As far as the eye can see Mr & Mrs Orange are both school teachers Both are optimistic, enthusiastic and love to teach Energetic ,cheerful and passionate Learning and education never far from their minds reach Mr Grey , l should say Mayor Grey Has the village and residents best interest at heart Always calm, composed and diplomatic Supporting locals with their creativity, colour and art Miss Yellow runs the village general store A lovely outgoing lady with a heart of gold Always trying to accomodate all the residents wants and needs Her produce is quality so be quick or it will be sold! Mr Black is the publican of the Rainbow Inn An intriguing powerful fellow A somewhat mysterious man Who is secretly and hopelessly in love with Miss Yellow Rainbow Village is a wonderful place to reside Full of incredible interesting and varied folk Not always do they see eye to eye Yet come Sunday all gather and unite over lunch and a joke

This is really, really evocative of small- town life in America as well as Australia, Deb. Great job of portraying it. (Colorful too). ~ Barbers, Beauticians, Bakers --- Gershon

A FAV for my collection by a favorite poet of mine. I want to live in "Rainbow Village." Your imagery was enticing, Deb. A simple life is more appealing the older I get. Do you allow visitors for Sunday lunch? :-) Hugs from your poet friend in Texas, Tex (New name ... I deleted all my old poems and I'm starting anew.)
