Excerpt
How the Rainbow Sea Came to Be
Another story, oh let me see.
So many faces looking at me.
Let me search your hearts for just a minute.
I find just the right story hidden inside it.
Mighty leprechauns brought a bucket of glow.
They knew this land would let it grow.
They asked Zayod and his Dreaming Tree
if any place safe the Glow could be.
Zayod turned with a smile and a wave of his hand
he showed them a picture of a bit of dry land.
If we set the bucket of glow on its heart
the love of the land will lend a start.
Agreed they did and went as fast as they could
to stand by the heart as dry as old wood.
Then kissed the bucket of glow once more,
set it down, that was the end of their chore.
A sound did start pulsating across the land.
Lub dub lub dub like the drums in the band.
Out from the Heart flowed a beautiful sight
it continued to flow far into the night.
The glimmering waters of the Rainbow Sea
swirling colors about for all to see.
That’s how the Rainbow Sea did arrive
and why it helps to keep things alive.
Did you know, every rainbow you see in the sky
has been touched by the waters and that is why
red, yellow, green, pink, purple, orange and blue
those are the colors of life given for view.
Once-Upon-A-Time will you come here?
I’m a little fragile and showing fear.
Oh Window Pane, so glad you did call
my legs needed to bend so I will not fall.
How lucky you are to have such a view!
You can see from the ground to the sky of blue.
I’ll only take a bit of your time.
There’s a thing outside starting to climb..
Yes, the sky is where you should send your gaze.
I’ve been watching the blip for the past three days.
It’s there – that little patch of Blue and Red
Do see it buzzing past, far over my head?
Yes indeed I know it well.
Come on children. I’ve another story to tell.
Rasputin, the most feared wolf in the forest, bent on revenge for old insults. But then one night his life is turned around and a new future presents itself... will the old wolf choose to accept it?
