I look across the land through the rain,
The sky brightens as the sun shines.
There in front of me is a rainbow,
Its colours bring joy to my mind.
I look for the rainbows end
Knowing that a pot of gold is there.
I start walking towards the rainbows end.
As I walk I have my ups and downs in life,
Until that time when I reach the rainbows end.
I look back at the wonder of my colourful life,
Knowing that I have found that pot of gold
In the life I have led to reach this place,
This place of wonder and fulfilment,
My wonderful life, my pot of gold.

- Comment from author about the poem: Having just read Neville's poem ' No Pot of Gold' I made the comment "That pot of gold may not be there but the journey towards the end of that rainbow will be filled with wonder in our lives." - I thought there is a poem in those words so I wrote this.

Ahh. Erm, if we have it all now, we can't have it later. unless we CAN have our cake AND eat it?!
Did we gain much experience from 1066? I doubt I did. Doh!
Could only have been written by a person of strong character, positivity and spirituality.
A crock of gold or a reflection of one's life.
Thank you for your very kind words d a, you got it in one.
