CHILD OF THE RAINBOW:

My pretty little one, who plays upon the rainbow,

My pretty little angel, whom I never got to know,

Belonging now among the colours, high up in the sky,

And just by knowing that, I shall dry my weeping eyes.

 

With your red cherried lips & your yellow golden curls,

Your violet dancing eyes & your dress of coloured furls,

Pleats of misty green & orange, of indigo, red, & blue,

Now every time I see a rainbow, I´ll know it´s really you.

 

You´re raindrops kissing sunbeams & settling on dawn´s dew,

A little angel, whom upon earth, never got to pay her dues,

Maybe one day you´ll return, to our waiting human earth,

So that I may once again, give unto you, all my loving birth.
