Somewhere Under The Rainbow

[sandalwood]

Tree’s are waving welcome home as
Footsteps first meet pastures green
Where lily laden meadows yawn
And laughing hills lie down to sleep
I call out to my brothers far
And fill it with reunion’s play
Our family ten thousand strong
Let burst our hearts these numbered days
As lively sun comes and joins along
The meadow opts to shy away
The dance floor blushing red with dust
We turn up stones to decorate
As parting ways our dancing dies
The sun takes rest behind a cloud
Torrents fall on thirsty earth
And wash away the lingering sound
In silence now the meadow wakes
The stones surround with vibrant greens
Old trees alight the trodden floor
And footpaths flood to form new streams
The flora find their home again
With hills all dressed in flower beds
The nourished earth forms softer paths
And fauna rouse to dance in our stead
Without even a footprint left
It looks untouched when comes the dawn
Reborn the earth puts us at ease
Our long trip back to babylon
