The Rainbows Gold I have found the proverbial pot of gold Where told, at the bottom of a rainbows fold. But if you think it solid your mistaken For it is but effervescent thoughts forsaken. It rings as misty as the rainbow itself From colored hues of wisdom within yourself. It is a heart full of toll that swells from a bell Of all of the essence of heaven and hell. It is the light and shadow of fantasy A mixture of agony and ecstasy. It contains seven vail and plays in your brain In music, rainbows and desires ordain. It is heard and colored and stirred by yearns sail And in one case I heard swallowed by a whale. The treasure is there and for some it is plain But for others I know it turns into pain. So if by chance you find your rainbows gold. Let it never be said you were not told. |

All that glitters is usually not gold The treasure comes silently when you least expect This is stunning as is all your work Your student poet Liz |

"From colored hues of wisdom within yourself." and this line proves me point of your wisdom set to rhyme.

From colored hues of wisdom within yourself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ and you are our Rainbow poet  this place is sorely lacking the honesty, humility, wit & wisdom of your rhymes divine darlin Sy. Gratefully my library and the archives are well stocked with your cadenced gold... as well as our hearts.   |

Did you just call Sy an antique? ((*^)) Well, I would sure like to rub off his tarnish any day.  |
