RAINBOW
Prompt - Rainbow : What is at the end of a rainbow? Or, take a cue from kermit the Frog, and ask yourself, why are there so many songs about rainbows
Why do we chase after rainbows?
What’s to be found at the end?
What are those leprechauns hiding
At the base of a multi-hued bend?
The prism's a wonder to look at
A triumph of nature's own art
Sunshine is making a comeback
The rain has begun to depart
It feels like a time to get out of the house
To emerge from your waterproof shell
But isn't that freshness reward enough?
Why chase after treasure as well?
The rainbow has become a great emblem
One that's displayed with much Pride
For the efforts of doctors and nurses
Working on while their ministers lied
Roy G's always welcome to visit
But his gift's not material wealth
He's the colourful border between rain and sun
A smile-bearing bringer of health
There's a lot has been written of rainbows
Some say they're a mystical sign
But some think the gold will be there for them
Like picking a grape from a vine
Our simple joy in the colours
Puts a beancounter's nose out of joint
If a rainbow makes you think 'money!'
You're missing the whole fekin point!
