A New World in an Old World

A rainbow comes in dream,
On grass spread along,
The flowing watery ream.
Waking vanishes colors,
Vision dims and blurs,
The dream of rainbow.
A wish sprouts to see,
A rainbow while awake,
In a world of broken dreams,
A rainbow that could bring,
Refreshing thoughts' streams,
Rebuilding dreams that broke,
In old world a new world make.
