In the dead of night, I finally fell asleep, Looking back, I'm sure it was much too deep! For a dream within a dream, opened my eyes, To being inside a rainbow, of new sunny skies! It was so vast, with no beginning and no end, I gazed afar, but failed to see around the bend. Infinite bands of colors, everywhere I turned, Sparkling like myriad gems, as golden sun burned! The clouds seemed solid, and I was able to walk, Reminiscent of tales of Jack, and his beanstalk! I saw a woman sitting on a chair shaped cloud, Enjoying the dazzling view, while singing aloud. Instead of one color, her hair contained them all! I supposed radiance, the color could be called. With eyes like diamonds, she wore colorful dress, She was the lovely, exotic Rainbow Queen, no less! As I excitedly called to her, she looked my way, But, black nights are so short, I couldn't stay! I often recall the slumber that I'll never forget, When colors were splattered on night's silhouette!
