Trickle down your rainbow <br />Alive with broken dreams <br />Aspiring to a portal <br />Destinations are believed. <br /> <br />Wash away that which brightens day <br />Alive the singing night <br />Aspiring the coming morning <br />Dawning on minds that live to fight. <br /> <br />Fight for the lives of brothers and <br />Sisters cry to sleep <br />The cloud below we walk on <br />To mask their hardened feet. <br /> <br />Sleep into hateful sorrow <br />Whisked around from painful souls <br />While barons lie in fruitful shells <br />No need to seek out warmth. <br /> <br />Look through tinted windows <br />Stained with wasted blood <br />Bottled in cellars, develop their texture <br />From different coloured wood. <br /> <br />A vicious circle to spiral <br />The lives of turmoil to forget <br />Wash down your pitied water <br />That paints rainbows in the air. <br /> <br />17/06/2008<br /><br />Phillippa Harris<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/somewhere-over-a-rainbow/
