If I Could Catch a Rainbow - Sandra Lewis Pringle
Friendship's Flower - Helen Steiner Rice
If I Could Catch a Rainbow
If I could catch a rainbow, I would do it, just for you,
Friendship's Flower
Life is like a garden
And lovely are the blossoms
And, like the garden blossoms,
And, if the seed of friendship

From Sandra's book Sing Loudly as Lions Roar.
And, share with you, its beauty, on the days you're feeling blue.
If I could, I would build a mountain, you could call your very own.
A place to find serenity, a place just to be alone.
If I could, I would take your troubles, and toss them into the sea.
But, all these things, I'm finding, are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain, or catch a rainbow fair;
but, let me be, what I know best,
A Friend, who's always there.
I promise to defend you, should the occasion ever rise,
And, I promise to wipe away the tears,
which might stream from your weeping eyes.
Let me be the trusted Friend, the one that you know best.
I will never leave you, on that, you can surely rest.

And friendship like a flower,
That blooms and grows in beauty
With the sunshine and the shower.
That are tended with great care,
By those who work unselfishly
To make the place more fair.
Friendship's flower grows more sweet
When watched and tended carefully
By those we know and meet.
Is planted deep and true
And watched with understanding,
Friendship's flower will bloom for you.
