Pale Rainbow

The stormy clouds
and blistering rain
have passed, heading
towards the rolling waters
of majestic beauty.
The sun trying to peek out
from smiling playful clouds.
As I gaze out the window
the clouds are passing
at a great speed.
A rainbow pale in color,
peeks just at the very top of my
window that overlooks
my garden of serenity.
I smile,
enraptured by the beauty,
I step outside.
My beautiful rainbow
is flying with the wind.
She is nowhere to be found.
I go inside and feel
a strange twinge of sadness.
For I wanted
to capture my rainbow in print.
To gaze upon its beauty
for the days to come
for
God will have given
a magnificent photograph
with a wide sweep of his hands.
The look will have the look as if
He
airbrushed the sky
in delicate hues of Caribbean blue,
and shades of mauve,
and pale golden yellow.
I return to my window,
there is my beautiful pale rainbow.
It must be an illusion
captured just for me to see.
I return to the warm breezes of outside
and
I walk around the house
and
in my line of vision
is a delicate rose.
The glittering teardrops
sparkling like crystal diamonds
on her delicate velvet petals.
I am a blessed child of the earth today.
The gods have taken notice of me
and
decided to share
this lovely vision of nature
in all her
glory and beauty.
As I whisper into the wind
I say in a hushed sound
Thank You.
