Rainbows In Windows


Anxiety soared in my two-up two-down
Hanging around in my dressing gown,
I searched for a smile but found only a frown
The street was so quiet, just like a ghost town.

I sensed that depression was sinking in
My heart was thumping, my head in a spin,
I looked in the mirror, i couldn't even grin
I hadn't been eating, my face was so thin.

I needed to talk but there was no one around
So erie and weary, during lockdown,
My thoughts were deep and very profound
I was too scared to get the bus into town.

Then I saw a Rainbow with colours so bright
That a child had crayoned in a window of light,
For the Nightingales fighting this horrendous plight
It made me believe it would all be alright.

Rainbows in windows made all my pain fly
And lifted the spirits of all passers by,
Rainbows in Windows express battle cry
And call to the Heavens way up in the sky.
