Rainbow of Fun

I opened my love to a beautiful day, 
In rain, in hail, and cold,
And my heart ran off, to your open arms, 
To grasp, to nurture and hold,

With love on your pillars, reaching up high, 
Above all the love in the town,
My heart, in your arms, played like a child, 
Played with what it had found,

And that was a freedom for happy and fun, 
Freedom to do what I do,
To be a red balloon in a cluster of black, 
As I happily walk beside you,

Now, since our bubble of free is secure, 
We can turn our colours up bright,
And we can become the rainbow of fun, 
The beautiful rainbow at night.

This went straight to my FAVS list. I love everything about it, especially the whimsy of it, and the cadence.
