Riding On A Rainbow

We had to store you in darkness -
March - the ground too hard.
Four men wearing black suits
lifted you, you - inside of brass -
on each side, the Lords Prayer,

Four men lifted you and placed
you back into a black car, and
once again we followed you...
to Father's carved heart.

Until We Meet Again - as marble
shinned in sunshine, you waited
forty four days - for May.
Four and four - your favorite
numbers when you visited the
track. Forty four days in a
place you walked by, played
near - even talked about.

Your soul created a rainbow
from one empty field to the
next - from one mountain
to another - the largest
rainbow, wider and in every
color.

White fluffy clouds were high
above this rainbow, blue -
deeper than a sky.
We were blessed with moistend
swabs of love - God rejoicing.

The rainbow - has disappeared
but you never stayed behind
heavens gate - you're still
riding on a rainbow believing
you are here.
