Walk a Rainbow

I’ve walked a rainbow in the sky.
From end to end upon a sigh
But found no treasures at its end.
But many pleasures in its wend.

Euphoria pervades the air.
And titillate each gloomy care.
And songs of angels hover the stroll.
To charm the sounds of bells that toll.

Butterflies stayed to paint their wings.
With scepters that were made for kings
And dewdrops dripped into some shells.
For drinking at some wishing wells

A moment in a paradise
Full of angel cake and spice
A seem within a dreamers wile.
A rainbow in the grandest style

I’ve purchased me a season’s pass.
Its shape is shaped an hourglass.

Hey Seymour  
I just got here, too. I didn't have to look you up like I do when you come real early and I'm late getting here.

Anyway, it's good to see you and your beautiful poem of rainbows. They are beautiful, aren't they?  
Heart Hugs,
Ethel

A great story of hope and dreams, nicely told.  KJ

You know I don't often tell you - but I do start my day with your poem every single morning.  Sometimes I am rushed so I thought it best to tell you, I do read every single one and do have favorites.  I liked the image of this one, but then it rains so much here, rainbows are all we have to look forward to after downpours.   A hug for Isabel too please.

my oh my oh my sweet Sy...I wish you could see the smile on my face...that AWESOME verse alone was worth the wait to read you today
If I was there I'd give you a big tinker-hug for this cadence kiss of bliss and those rhyme divine closing couplet.

JM,
A hug from Tinkerbell is all I need
And it always comes in words of your read.
And as for Randy, you just damn well turn him on. WWRS

You are no doubt one of my favorite poets! Just when you think you can't get any better you surprise me with such beautiful words that the poem seems to move through my blood. I love your work, dear Seymour! You do such wonders with your pen!!!!

But found no treasures at its end.
But many pleasures in its wend.

It's easy to concentrate so fully upon the destination that we forget the joys the journey has to offer... thanks for this beautiful reminder! *S* I loved every line of this, Seymour! *S*

And titillate each gloomy care.
And songs of angels hover the stroll.
To charm the sounds of bells that toll.

This reaches far and wide and
rests so lovingly before my eyes.
