A rainbow in the sky
~ Wordsworth ~
I would do it, just for you,
And share with you it's beauty,
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could, I would build a mountain,
You could call your very own.
A place to find serenity,
A place just to be alone.
If I could, I would take your troubles,
And toss them into the sea.
But, all these things, I'm finding
Are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain,
Or catch a rainbow fair,
But, let me be, what I know best,
A Friend who's always there.
I promise to defend you,
Should the occasion ever rise,
And, I promise to wipe away the tears,
Which might stream from your weeping eyes.
Let me be the trusted Friend,
The one that you know best.
I will never leave you,
On that, you can surely rest.

To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
~ William Shakespeare, King John ~
