With a rainbow under your arm
you came a-calling.
A home-made cardboard cut-out.
A spangled boomerang. A gift.
That night we put it on the bed.
Made love, a wish, and slept.
(Later, your rainbows would appear
in bedrooms allover town)
With a rainbow under your arm
you came a-calling.
A two-dimensional cartoon of the real thing.
Tongue-in-sky. Our love.
