I see your colours shining bright, <br />Through the African clouds you show your light, <br />You are like a Rainbow and I can't touch you, <br />Hard as I try I just can't reach you, <br /> <br />When I reach out you move away, <br />When I catch up you're just not there, <br />When I move away I see you everywhere, <br />When the rain is gone you are still there, I just can't reach you, <br />Like a Rainbow, you are like a Rainbow, <br /> <br />Like a Rainbow, you are like a Rainbow, <br /> <br />Do you know why you shine so beautiful and bright? <br />Do you know how to shine without the light? <br />If you touch me I will know and you will glow, <br />If you let me reach you then I will teach you and we'll be alright, <br /> <br />At sunset you fade, then my stars come out, <br />The darkness comes between us, must we be apart? <br />When you know me then your Northern Lights will shine bright, <br />Your Southern Lights will be up all night, my stars shine through you, <br />Then we will be alright. <br /> <br />March 2012<br /><br />David Andre' Klopper<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/like-a-rainbow-4/
