The Other Side Of The Rainbow

What is life without dreams, faith, hope and love? That's why I wrote this poem.

       The Other Side Of The Rainbow

 
On the other side of the rainbow there
 lies a pot of gold,
a wonderland full of fantasy where 
magic never grows old.
Like a child's imagination there's
always a new surprise,
where fictional characters are real
and dragons fly.
Is it really fantasy or just a beautiful 
dream,
a way to escape reality when the world isn't what it seems?
How many times have you wished on the first bright twinkling star,
or wondered about the pot of gold 
as you starred at a rainbow from afar?
What is a world without wishes and
hopes for a brighter day,
and maybe those things we dream of
really aren't so far way.

I believe they're right here in our imaginations. The challenge of a writer to make them interesting enough so that others will buy into the fantasy and make it their own.

As you have stated here, the natural world is a good place to start because of its beauty and mystery.

Far away... ?? How far is the farthest far? And why shouldn't we dream of traveling farther than the farthest far? You've rekindled the magic... may many more find themselves lost and found once again in these glorious verses. Not so far away as our hopes and our dreams, indeed. These verses are what we really need to stem the tide of those who hide within veneers of fickle faith that swallows gnats and strains at bats while sleeping daily on their feet. This day is come, the day when life and love and learned ones arise to grasp the meaning of the farthest far beyond the skies. It isn't really far at all, it's right inside your heart... and only then when we all see will your vision have its start! Thanks a lot for all you've said, for all the time you took to write this vision of the rarest rare, of all rare shone delights!!

Great deep poetic thoughts!
I love to live with hope. There is ALWAYS hope. Faith is sometimes sheer pursuit of a dream that will eventually come to be.

Trust and Believe in Him!

Amen!
