From the time my grandson was born I’ve taken every opportunity to sing the song, ‘I Can Sing a Rainbow’ to him. As we live quite far away from each other, often our phone calls will include what he calls, ‘The Rainbow Song’. I never tire of singing it, because it gives me so much joy to hear his little voice singing along, but also because I know it is encouraging him to remember the wonder and beauty of nature.

I was inspired to write a poem about ‘The Rainbow Song’.

Nature’s Rainbow Message

. 

Red and yellow, pink and green

What can it possibly mean?

. 

A rainbow of colour

A treasured gift of sight

A wondrous arch of beauty

Filling hearts with pure delight

. 

Purple and orange, and blue

What does it mean to you?

. 

A message written in the sky

Of hope, or joy, or love

Would we look at it the same

If not canvassed from above!

.

Natures silent words, so loud

bathed in glorious painted hue

Reminding us to feel her magic

And sing along with her too.

I Can Sing a Rainbow – Song Lyrics

. 

Red and yellow and pink and green

Purple and orange and blue

I can sing a rainbow

Sing a rainbow

Sing a rainbow too.

.

Listen with your eyes

Listen with your ears

And sing everything you see

I can sing a rainbow

Sing a rainbow

Sing along with me.

. 

Red and yellow and pink and green

Purple and orange and blue

I can sing a rainbow

Sing a rainbow

Sing a rainbow too!
