Make a Rainbow
If your wourld looks gloomy and you're feeling grim and glum
Make a rainbow for yourself,don't wait for one to come.
Don't sit watching at the window for the clouds to part.
There'll soon be a rainbow if you start one in your heart.
Take some lovely thought out of a poem or a prayer
Turn it over in your mind and let it linger there
Keep out every memory that dims the light within,
And hold on to the magic word that lets the brightness in.
Work your own small miracle and make the dull days glow.
Put some sunshine into life and let the glory show.
Make a rainbow for yourself with colors brave and gay
And underneath it's golden arch your cares will fade away.
