Rainbow's cotton children
But first we asked of you
do not destroy
love and happiness peace
the rainbow cotton children
warm small faces smile again and smell fear
I yes I
have plotted, planned and schemed
to rid my Creation
of thoes things
mankinds ingraitude
I will take no more
I too tire of famine disease and war
Here you take it
see what you can do
with this world
since I tire of it
it has wearied me now for many aeons
and despite the sun which I wrought
the moon the stars the same
they whose burdens I have borne just
groan moan complain and fight
and curse me! enlessly day and night
maybe perhaps maybe
you will bring
new colours since they it seems
they tire
of bleak white winters
the greening spring
the yellow harvests
red autumns fire
flowing crystal streams
I could go on but I too tire
father we will
use a different ploy
to soften the heart of those
whose hearts have turned to stone
the love of which is mired in the clay of there world
father we plead
restrain your wrath
and let us use a different ploy
to see if we can soften once again
their hearts to light and glow again
and in their joy return to you
not worship
nor praise
or sacrifice
but that love
which you desire
the love which you have shown
on us all
do not destroy us let us play the rainbow
