She's Like A Rainbow

Her soul, a prism
refracting light,
love, life,
in all directions;

She is a dreamer
spinning stories,
living, breathing
them to fruition;

Her eyes sparkle
like the water,
shimmering, alive,
awash in hope;

She knows of clouds
and somber skies,
dark, ominous
but on their parting;

Her soul, a prism
refracting light,
love, life,
in all directions...

Her purples shake your core,
Her {color=blue]blues[/color] ride the tides,
Her reds feed the flames,
Her pinks breathe life,
Her greens paint the landscape,
Her yellows touch the dawn,
Her oranges blush the sunset...

"She comes in colours everywhere,
She combs her hair,
She's like a rainbow,
Coming, colours in the air,
Oh, everywhere,
She comes in colours"

:)

Ooo-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-ooo

    ah yes. i like your reference to the stones pyschedelic lp 'their satanic majesties request'
    Down the street you can hear her scream youre a disgrace
    As she slams the door in his drunken face
    And now he stands outside
    And all the neighbours start to gossip and drool
    He cries oh, girl you must be mad,
    What happened to the sweet love you and me had?
    Against the door he leans and starts a scene,
    And his tears fall and burn the garden green

    Very well done!
    Can't you see that there's light in the dark.
    Nothing's quite what it seems in the city of dreams.

    Loved this one BE! Great read! :o)
    Our love must not be just words, but True Love, which shows itself in action,
    No one needs a smile more than someone who fails to give one,
    After you die...you know how to LIVE!
