Good morning from beautifully sunny Bonny Scotland.  I am really feeling the benefits of de-cluttering my house, I feel the air is lighter and the energy is flowing much more freely around me.  Another benefit of having a ‘clear out’, is that I am coming across more song and poetry writings from years ago, I found some more last night.  Until now, I have only ever shared poetry on this blog but I also write songs and thought I would share with you the lyrics from this song I wrote almost 20 years ago.  The song is entitled, “I smile when I think of that rainbow” – may your day today be filled with all the colours of the rainbow.  Lots of love Clarabelle

I smile when I think of that rainbow (Song Lyrics)

Verse 1:  Shine a light, on the world around you,

See the shadows of life, appear every time.

Some are dark, and mysterious to others,

But they don’t see the inside, only the outline.

I have a vision, beyond empty detail,

Created from, these shadows alone.

They are pictured, in my mind full of memories,

Collected from past years, of my own.

Chorus:  I smile, when I think of that rainbow,

Arching over, all the good times I’ve had.

Protecting me, from the raindrops that have fallen,

Whenever happy, turns into sad.

Verse 2:  Tough experiences, can make you feel blind,

Because you can’t see the pictures, to understand.

Broken images, that don’t have no meaning,

They, are drawn from the wrong hand.

Paint a bright picture, to lighten up your life,

One that reflects, the most happiest times.

Open your eyes, and look past the heartache,

and listen, dull silence turns to bright chimes.

Chorus:  I smile, when I think of that rainbow,

Arching over, all the good times I’ve had.

Protecting me, from the raindrops that have fallen,

Whenever happy, turns in to sad.

Addition:  I want to, lift my head up,

And see, the rainbow above.

Lighting my heart, whenever it’s hollow,

The feeling I have, when I’m in love.

Chorus:  I smile, when I think of that rainbow,

Arching over, all the good times I’ve had.

Protecting me, from the raindrops that have fallen,

Whenever happy, turns in to sad.
