NEAR THE END OF THE…

 

NEAR THE END OF THE…

 

Driving north this morning

Along (Rte.) One forty-six,

I saw a lovely rainbow

The ends to drive betwixt…

I drove around a corner,

One end was close at hand:

I’d never been that close before

To where the rainbow lands!

–

I couldn’t stop to check the woody

Roadside where the rainbow went,

I didn’t see leprechauns

(Perhaps the gold was spent)…

As soon as I drove underneath

The car was hit with spray

From the next storm front to hit…

The rainbow went away!
