When the Air Becomes Visible - Rainbows

The sky on days become too full And gravity will start to pull And capture every bubble frame While popping corks off rich champagne The trees will fool and start to dance And still the time on every branch With baron shrine and fruits to bare The wind that strokes and blows through hair On top-down journeys come to pause And settle howls with loud applause Before acceding way too fast They leave a trail that sprouts from past Of flitter flatters in delight And pitter patters out of sight Extending dreams as arms beseech To touch the always out of reach Parting ways, they kiss goodnight Before the lips close way too tight The watermarks miraged for miles With poppy sighs and angel smiles A substance of the rarest rare The healing voice of hearts that care The silver clouds left in its wake Remain untouched for heaven’s sake It can’t be met from anywhere But viewed to share the secret stare and ponder why it’s so reborn Transparent in its naked form It paints the sky with gold perhaps For all to drink from natures tap The air contains the future’s plot Seen at times, at others not It’s written in the stars you see Eclipsed by mind and soul-ar key Failure amidst surrounds of air That doesn’t mean love isn’t there
