To Where the Rainbows Rule Again

Denial
-
Comes
-
With
Many
Names
-
Anger
-
Fear
-
Our lives
To
Stain
-
As
Bravery

Our
Fleetness

So
Seems
It
Then
-
That
Gravity
-
Would
Sink
Us
-
In
It's
Deep
-
Dark
Sea
-
Not
So

For

-
Doth
Strain
-
To
Catch
Us
-
Lead
Us
-
Through
The

To
Where

For Helen

Helen Mary
-
Seeks
The
Blue
-
Sea worn glass
-
Beside the pool
-
Where the tide lays
-
On the shore
-
By
Rocks
-
Small
Stones
-
Sea fairies store
-
Though
Green
Glass
Glistens
-
On white sand
-
By
Oceans
Sent
-
To touch her hand
-
Helen Mary
-
Faithful
-
True
-
Seeks only ever
-
Sea glass Blue

I was the Bull
-
The
Tiger
Too
-
I've been the Monkey
-
And
The
Shrew
-
I was an Elephant
-
Awhile
-
Once
-
A
Crocodile
-
Of
The Nile
-
A Lizard
-
I was sent to be
-
Before
-
A
Wolf
-
That
Wandered
Free
-
The Bear
-
 I was
Not long ago
-
And then
-
A
White Owl
-
In
The
Snow
-
A Whale
-
I've swum
The Seven Seas
-
Been
A bird
-
Amongst the trees
-
All animals
-
Are of one kind
-
All
Brothers
-
That
Includes
Mankind
-
Of course
They hear
-
What I have said
-
You see
-
Their spirits dwell 
-
Still in my head
