Rainbow Connection

**I wrote a poem based off lyrics from the song “Rainbow Connection” as sung Kermit the Frog (per request of my mom **❤️❤️**).**

_So many questions…_

_So few answers…_

_Where are they hiding?_


Why

Are there so many

Songs

About rainbows

And what’s on

The other side?

It’s like rainbows are

Dreams,

Nothing and nowhere

To hide.


Rainbows

Are visions,

But only illusions,

So we keep on

Searching

For what’s on

The other side.


And rainbows

Have nothing

To hide,

No secrets

Hidden inside.


So we’ve been told

There’s nothing more to it,

And some choose

To believe it,

But…

I know they’re

Wrong,

Wait and see…


_Someday_

_We’ll find it…_

_The rainbow connection…_

_The lovers,_

_The dreams,_

_And me…_


Who said

That every wish

Would be heard

And answered

When wished

On the morning star?

That’s just not true,

But…

Somebody

Thought of that,

And somebody

Believed it…

Look

What it’s done

So far,

Not much for the better,

Don’t you see?

__

_Some hope is true…_

_Some hope is false…_

_You’ve gotta believe me…_


What’s so amazing

That keeps us stargazing,

And what do we

Think

We might see?

I think I know…


_Someday _

_We’ll find it…_

_The rainbow connection…_

_The lovers,_

_The dreamers,_

_And me…_


All of us

Under its spell,

This hope,

These dreams,

This rainbow connection…

I hope

They have

Good intentions.


We know

It’s probably magic,

Yet we still choose

To believe.


Have you

Been half asleep,

And have you

Heard voices?

I’ve heard them

Calling

My name…


Is this the sweet voice

That calls

The young sailors?

That enticing

Siren song…

__

_The voice might be_

_One and the same…_


I’ve heard it

Too many times

To ignore it,

So I

Listen closely…


_Very closely…_


It’s something

That I’m supposed to be…

Because…

__

_Someday_

_We’ll find it…_

_The rainbow connection…_

_The lovers,_

_The dreamers, _

_And me…_
