The man that built the rainbow for his storm!
Devon Bates 1980 (Norfolk)
Their was a man I once knew!
His brown eyes shined too!
He, was creative and strong!
He worked and created all day long!
He saw diamonds that shined!
Polishing them was more than a job it was a hobby!
Truly, his creating time!
He loved to plant as well!
He would feed and water them!
Soon he had a whole crop to share!
So, before he let his mind drive him insane!
The thoughts in his head!
One by one, he made songs and stories about them!
Wolves and majestic creatures you see!
If, one passes by you and goes its own way its reminding you, treasure some chapters you live!
Investing in yourself, will pay off everyday!
Live, and just notice the things of today!
If you have the "opportunity" to do good then do it!
Night is the time to play!
For, an older man gathers!
He stores as, his maidens!
Family, communities, generations of tomorrow that, came from leaders, of today!
All shine from good people, living in their ways!
