Rainbow-Catcher

Oh, how I want to catch a rainbow in the sky

But first I must learn to fly

Because rainbows exist way up high

Maybe I could borrow an angel's wing

Oh how do I hope, because

Rainbows are such wondrous things!

Rainbows

After the last raindrops have fallen

I look up in the sky

And see beaming colors:

Red, orange, yellow,

Green, blue, indigo, violet

At the end of the rainbow

I know there is no pot of gold

But I am happy

Knowing it will return someda1y.
