I saw a rainbow…
I tried to ignore its call…
A running mirage…
I chased it through the streets…
The blues and reds compelled me...
I knew I could not catch its flight…
It smiled with violet eyes…
Rain stung my windshield…
Dancing in panicked swirls…
Laughing at my plight…
Chasing… but near…
Flashes of sun strobe my eyes…
Trees shield breath of yellow…
Hiding in the rays…
Dodging the prism drops…
At once, I was inside… full within…
My lungs inhale orange light…
Time stops and sound wanes a song …
My spirit floats in pools of green …
I stretched my arm into the winds…
Indigo water chirped my skin…
Wind driven… and accepting…
My hand a windmill of color…
I passed from its cocoon…
I feel my heart… now aware of time…
I turn to see its path behind …
Life’s gold within me still…
