This side of the rainbow

This side of the rainbow

There’s blue birds on my windowsill
And there’s no rainbow in the sky
No brick road painted yellow
But, there’s still blue birds here that fly

There’s challenges at every turn
Not involving men of tin
You still need heart on this side
Unless you lead a life of sin

The road is not a brick one
Not where I live, I must say
But to live life still takes courage
Though there’s no lion in my way

Life does not come easy
Not on this side of the rainbow sky
You have to use your brain o’er here
And keep asking why, why, why?

There’s is life over the rainbow
But there is life on this side too
They say the grass is always greener
But, remember…we’ve also birds of blue.
