The rainbow is God's promise
not a path that leads astray
to pots of gold and empty promises
that are soon to fade away
For such things are for the foolish
who chase false hopes and empty dreams
for Leprechaun deceives them
and preys upon their greed
In their search of gold and happiness
to this end they will receive
only grief and disappointment
not the treasure that they seek
