It's A Funny Day For A Rainbow ~*Marge Tindal*~  It's a funny day for a rainbow Though the colors are bright with hue God sent a sprinkle of rain With a smattering of sun shining through  So I'm skittering across the rainbow Fleet of feet in gaiety prancing Though it's a funny day for a rainbow I sure do feel like dancing  Up jump Jolly Jingle Why I believe I see Kris Kringle It's a funny day for a rainbow And I'm seeing things of delight Dasher, Prancer and Vixen Readying for the flight Comet, Cupid, Donder and Blitzen Dancer waiting with Rudy Red And his nose so bright  It's a silly day for a rainbow But I'll take it come what may Take my hand and dance with me Across the rainbow of the day  For some there are snowflakes falling And Kisstletoe to be hung I'm basking in the sunshine With shopping yet to be done  It's a perfect day for a rainbow So join me in merry measure Stepping out in Holiday Greetings With friends of gold to treasure  It's a funny day for a rainbow Singing carols so merrily Jump on board the rainbow I've much for you to see  Candy canes and oranges Stockings to be stuffed Children waiting just to see If they've been good enough  It's a funny day for a rainbow And it offers so much more A celebration of the baby's birth And hearts with love galore  Take this one-time offer Join me in a song It's a funny day for a rainbow And I've invited you along ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

It's a funny day for a rainbow and I've been invited along. It's a great day to let all pain go and join Marge in a song. I t may be short and may be sweet but once you fall right into it you'll just have to move your feet with your heart like a musical movement. I think it's a wonderful day for a rainbow after reading Marge Tindal's poem.... yipee!! I'm off to dance through the hues with my muse!! love it Marge!! |

Marge--What a colourful peice. You've brightened this Rainbow up this morning (my last name is Rainbow). A delight to read... take care, Poeminister "...no single sound too rude upon thy slumber shall intrude, Our thoughts, our souls- O God above! In every deed shall mingle, love." -Poe |

~Marge~ What a sweet Christmas poem, it reads like a song or better yet as a Christmas carol. You've done it again with your creativity! You always make me smile. I'll sing with you anyday! I really enjoyed this and I loved the graphics Melissa< !signature--> The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams [This message has been edited by Melissa Honeybee (edited 12-17-2000).] |

I love it when your muse takes hold shakes the jingle right out of your soul makes you spin and dance and such then you bless us with your touch...  Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |

Marge~ Beautiful one!! Where exactly is this rainbow?? I am looking outside MY window and all I can see is snow . . . EVERYWHERE!!! LOL. I'd love to see your rainbow my friend. Has to beat all this snow!! LW Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

SEA~ I saw you in my pot of gold ! Thanks for being here. Serenity~ LOL @ 'Maw-Maw' ... I'm happy you would want to share it with the kids. I've got a sneaky suspicion that teensy-muses were dancing in my heart. Irie~ Lots of room on the rainbow. Glad you are dancing too. Melissa~ Well, tune it up gal ! We've got songs to sing ! Karilea~ Love your rhyme in tune with mine. Stepping to the beat we've got rainbow dust on our feet ! JWesley~ I'm so glad to see your smile and happy to brighten your day ! Charisma~ I hope you'll read it anytime you need a lift. LoneWolf~ There is a rainbow in your snow It captures just the softest glow Of dancing beams in prismed light to bring you dancing through the night *Actually it WASN'T much of a day for a rainbow - but there it was - dancing off the clouds. I just said, 'It's a funny day for a rainbow.' And Poof ! This delightful little gem took flight. *Thanks to all of you for your sweet comments. You make writing so much fun ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

It's a funny day for a rainbow But it's a perfect day for snow A perfect time to trim the tree And for a candle's glow. It's a funny day for a rainbow But it's a perfect day to sing About the Christmas season and Jesus' birth And rainbows and everything! |

My friend, I do believe that rainbows follow you around as every where you show up there seems to be a smattering of color left in your path. Lovely and fun write my friend. Loved it for sure. A life with love will have some thorns, but a life without love will have no roses. author unknown |
