Pot of Gold

Beyond every rainbow
there is a pot of gold
With treasure so abounding
it can't be bought or sold;

A value so much greater
than we think of its worth,
A kindly deed or gesture
we sprinkle here on earth.

A rainbow is a promise
of something so much more
A beauty in abundance
of all it holds in store;

A gentle understanding
and tender loving care
A blessing painted in the sky
its reminder we find there.

So you see beyond the myriad
it really does exist
We only need to find its worth
within the heart that gives;

Instead of chasing wishful dreams
to reach that rainbow's end
Stop and look beyond the wealth
to the value of a friend.
