Riding on a Rainbow
We had to store you in darkness –
March – the ground too hard to dig.
Four men wearing black suits
Lifted you, you – inside of brass –
On every side, The Lords Prayer
Four men lifted you inside brass, placed
You back into a black car, and
Once again we followed you…
To a heart, father carved
Until We Meet Again – as marble
Shinned in sunshine, you waited
Forty-four days – for May
Four and four – your favorite
Numbers when you visited the
Track –
Forty-four days in a
Place you walked by, played,
Told us never will you rest there
Your soul created a rainbow
Stretching from one empty field to the
Next – from one mountain
To another – the largest
Rainbow, wider and brighter in
Color.
White fluffy clouds were high
Above this rainbow, a sky of
Deeper shade of blue –
We were blessed with moistened
Swabs of love – God rejoicing.
The rainbow – has disappeared
But you never stayed behind
Heavens gate – you’re still
Riding on a rainbow believing
You are here.
