"The Waiting Rainbow"
Written by Marisa Laurelle Love
For all the colors of the Rainbow
there's a sound that can't be named
we call it Red or Orange or Purple
thinking colors can be tamed
"I'm so much more than Blue, you see-
what color would YOU wish to be?"
A Green, and Yellow; Indigo?
Quick! Pick one, b'fore they all go!
It makes you think,
"can't I be Pink?"
Ponder this, and you will find
to be just one, is to be blind
"Pick me, pick me..."
The Rainbow sings
"You need us ALL to find your wings.
We all take turns
we have days off
Even Rainbows need rest;
it's how we stay soft!
Our Power is better together, it's True-
Green wouldn't be Green
if there wasn't a Blue!
Open your eyes
from the inside, out-
You'll always find your Rainbow waiting,
right there
behind the clouds.
About the Creator

Hi! My name's Marisa. Really, it is. And it's pronounced like "Lisa"- Mareeesa. It's hard for people, I'm not sure why that is.:)
Anyways- I like to write, sing, dance, and explore the inner and outer worlds as much as possible. Birds rule.

How, Too
Many people wonder how, too. You are not alone, and I am an expert. I will teach you how, too! First, you need to remit a small application fee and fill out an application describing the nature of your financial situation and how often payments will be made, as this will have great bearing on how well I teach you how, too.
