The Rainb ow Under My Roof
By Amy Kenyon
 
 
I have my own Rainb ow that I see everyday;
with colors so beautiful
what more can I say.
 
The colors of my Rain bow are more than an array;
with red, yellow, orange , green
and even with a little bit of gray.
 
My Rainb ow can whistle a wonderful tune;
that I never get tired of,
not even on a blue moon.
 
My Rainb ow can fly from room to room;
and even sit
on the tip of my broom.
 
My Rainb ow likes to sit on my shoulder the best;
and snuggle and chirp
as if I were its quest.

My Rainb ow loves to splish and splash;
when I turn on my faucet
it's there in a flash!
 
My Rainb ow can play with my dog all day;
they can chase each other for hours,
and then, on the couch, together they lay.
 
My Rainb ow will also play peek-a-boo;
 he will hide behind his toy
then peek over it and look at you.
 
My Rainb ow is special as you can see;
and the pot of gold at the end
is my Rainb ows' love for me.
