A rainbow and a dog - By Kazeem Adio
One side of the sky looked misty and somewhat cloudy
It made me feel like it was going to rain
I looked up on the other side, I saw a rainbow surrounded by stars
Beautiful and colorful, just like the queen of my town
glittering from afar even though it seems near
The closer I got to it, the more I wanted it to be saved
Cos the cloud on the other side is surely not any good
It brings the cold rain and takes down everything with it
But it seems my rainbow’s mind is all made up
That with the dark cloud, it is ready to fall
Ready to bear whatever pain comes along
And ready to be another casualty of love.
Like a dog that’s determined to get lost
The hunter’s warnings, it constantly ignores
Thinking with its heart instead of its mind
Believing it sees better and armed enough for the task
Not knowing what glitters sometimes might not be gold
And there are more numbers beyond the number ‘nine’.
