This poem was originally published on 15 April 2013. It appears in my debut anthology Wildflower Sea available at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo Books.
They cast themselves across the skies In colours ranging seven They covered the world in merry shades As they reached out to heaven They stretched themselves ever far And disappeared into the clouds Leading to a pot of gold somewhere Under a Leprechaun's shroud I wondered if God had painted The world in different hues But changed his mind several times Because of bad reviews Oh what a sight they were The rainbow silhouettes The Ancient Birds flocked down upon me And I was caught in their colour nets
