Step Inside A Rainbow

It would be good, I think,

To step inside a rainbow,

To absorb its glowing colors,

To bathe in its warm, soft droplets

as they scatter into light.

Inside A Rainbow

It would be good, I think,

To be one with that ethereal arch,

To find that proverbial pot of gold

And know, once and for all,

that all rainbows end and stay

forever in my heart.

How Many of Us

October 23, 2009 at 5:19 pm | In Poetry | 11 Comments

How many of us
When we reach the end
Have regrets,
Dreams lost in the shuffle,
Words never spoken,
Hugs never shared
With someone in pain?

How many of us
When we reach the end
Will never have pondered
The light of the moon,
The song of the wind,
Or the stories found
In a grain of sand?

How many of us
When we reach the end
Will die lonely and lost
Without friends to return
The hugs we never gave,
The smiles we never shared,
The love we never knew?

Are you one
Of the many of us
To whom life was a drag,
A gift thrown away,
Where nothing of beauty
Entered your heart…
Or your soul?

Are you one of the many of us?
