The Rainbow
~~~~~~~~~~~
You and I, through wind and rain,
The hurricanes of Life,
Two bending trees for all to see
Resistant to the strife.

Because we know the storm will stop,
How soon we cannot say.
And when the clouds shed their last drop
The sun will show its rays,

And make a rainbow in the sky
Of orange, green, and blue,
A symbol of enduring love
Uniting me and you.

The rainbow bridge, a colored path
Like lights on Christmas trees,
Will span across the gaping gorge
Of fallibilities.

The Rainbow will preserve our love
As long as it remains.
And when it's gone we'll call upon
The memories in our brains

Of seven hues swirled in the sky
With indigo and red
The glowing span will fortify
Our love in times of dread.

The Rainbow brightly fills our eyes
As stars of twilight shine
They both enable us to see
Their beauty, so divine.

Through thunderstorms and hurricanes
The Rainbow holds its place
Until the clouds give up their rage
And dissipate their lace.

And so the rainbow wins again
The elemental fight
And triumphs o'er the cloudy core
And basks in its delight.

Our love is like that stoic arch
Which outlasts every storm.
We'll stay as one through sleet or hail.
Together we will form
A Rainbow of our own.
