the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow


is there really such a thing
that when you look up after the rain
comes the thought and the hope
that you'll see colorful hues not the blues

is there really such a thing
that when you gaze up at the sky
you will put a mark in your heart
that will keep it from breaking apart

is there really such a thing...

when a child with innocence
smiles at you, you know it's true
when a child tells you a story
you can believe it's true

but when an adult smiles at you
your mind and your lips will smile back
but it will start to add up
am i being used and only being played upon
by a joker, or a con-artist without a heart

or it could be true and without malice
nor any agendas in their minds
my friend you won't be lost
if you look at the acts not the promises
that is baseless of the parts
you won't be lost if you stay and look at the facts
that will jibe with the words and the promises at hand

for so many plays, so many roads
and so many words
with so many looks
but only one will hold true
is the presence of the proofs
which your eyes and
your hands can behold

as all the rest are false...

then and only then
that you've hit that pot of gold
in your pocket
at the end of that rainbow
as you've reached it
you can finally bow
and thanks the Lord
for giving you that bounty
filled with bags full of gold...

so the verdict is, it depends
one may have it or it won't never end
the search and the hope for that pot of gold
at the end of the rainbow that you see in that window
after the rain, after that much pouring rain

and we could only hope
and we could only pray
that God will help us
and find us the way
that will end up
in our true victory :)
