Myriad’s Rainbow

A leprechaun’s dream of a pot of gold is future wide free as wild and dare of adventure great

But if Myriad’s Rainbow appears clear day of light all the children’s toes twinkle wiggle piggle with might of sight

Teddy the Ready Leprechaun of chase of treasure wheeled 360° and said I fly through the night

Clutching atwinkle of purple he let it twist in air of sudden wind until it rode horizontal in air of spacious flat

Ballooning voluminous clouds appeared around in marvelous view of liquid circles until a map appeared s summoned from tree of knowledge

Grasping in small squarish green hands he turned this way that way looking watching it expand expand until as long as his arm  

Clicking teeth of greedy white he whistled with glee I see I sea a treasure treasure for me all good gain so true a true I no longer be a blue

Trotting off at past semi-slow to semi-fast he beguiled time to run elation by itself twisting and winding until it engaged automatic

Packing vittles to last a week’s journey he packed packed a venture a venture on his way aloft his craft of move

Dodging man eating plants of blue-red color he slashed slashed at eating tentacles tentacles until he followed through to space between

Wiping his brow of sweat he swooshed he swooshed blowing breathless air from lungs of terrified wonder

He said in a brogue of Irish that was a close one me little ass almost got eaten alive flayed and deboned of filet

Upon a hill of aqua blue a diamond turned on channel of white reflecting doorways of travel disappearing and appearing with each rotation sphere

Grabbing map of direction he traced his travel point with grubby finger of little until he located the door of entry to find Myraid’s Rainbow

Screaming Jeronimo he flew with accelerated speed into the lowest doorway nearest the ground between the West and South tree of split direction post

Once inside the doorway gravity repelled thought becoming universal to fly upside down standing sideways backwards without capsizing

Teeth flashing huge white he rolled his craft in circles of eight testing the new agility flights saying varoom varoom varoom

Looking around he saw sights never seen before trees with fruit huge as basketballs hanging heavily on vines of thick as arm was wide

Eyes narrowed into slits of discovery saw a sight never before beheld a rainbow of descend with end of all colors revolved in vertically in place circulating from size thin to wide thin to wide

Landing in fast stop he threw anchor to tree and investigated the bottom of rainbow with shades of diamonds of each possible color decorating his clothing and skin

Reaching with investigative fingers of curiosity to touch his clothes the diamond became real and landed in his palm of discovery with a small plop

Grabbing his bag of keep he filled it full till it expanded light heavy with exacting weight of great but luscious light

Looking at map of treasure it said for all that look for the treasure of Myriad’s Rainbow say open the one who has owns it all and will open and enter the bag of little tiny until home to expand as many

Pursing lips to say he stuttered any way and said it three until right I have it now and watch the ground open wide and watch the treasure dance until small and enter the bag of little tiny

Teddy the Ready jumped on his craft folded his map and left and arrived home amongst family and friends shouting look look what I have and open the bag of little tiny and watched the treasure dance from within until it stretched a ¼ of a mile of every type of imaginable gold jewelry of adornment and trinkets of gold to make any man a pauper richer than a king of many kingdoms

Grabbing his wife of many years he said I love you all these plenty and I say I am home to stay

The End
