Analysis of prismatic colored eyes
john mckiernan 1953 (Australia)
step into my light sweet young child
you were golden and crimson blue velvet for a while
moon glow and a circle a daisy chain indeed
tiny hands are holding in complete harmony
around and around their wonderful world revolves
their circle of life is a story to be told
a song so beautiful the innocence of youth
if god gave it wings we could all find the truth
a daisy chain of children five colors and more
they gave me a rainbow and the key to a door.
