The Secret of the Rainbow

I have become a colony for swallows

For to live in the flower season

Trees of peace grow in remote places

And I embrace them.

I see with the eyes of a poet

Than with the color of fireflies

Embellishes

The celestial card!

And us

We will be in the spontaneous geometry universe

Of colors on the palette of a great artist

 That depicts only the sea

We will listen with the windows wide open

The music of the forgotten rattles

From the angels in the clouds,

Reminder that everything

It’s a miracle.

In our hands the ashes of thousands of colors

My eyes are still in yours.

And the wood gnomes have revealed to me

The secret of the rainbow!
