Rain-bowed sounds surround searching souls,
fill the sky with parallel bands of harmony,
dressed up in nature’s magnificent finery,
red, orange, and yellow cascading alongside
green, indigo, blue violet,

as the bending of light beams cry out clearly,
circling inside the corridors of my ears that I may hear
the pure unadulterated sounds of love’s light

reflecting, refracting, enveloping me
within the sounds of glorious color harmony.

Rain-bowed sounds fill the sky,
layering parallel bands of harmony
like splayed fingertips of humanity
revealing that life
is a Maestro’s primary orchestrated song,
played out in the key of reality.

For life itself is the prime opus,
a celebration of unity in diversity,
and the rainbow is the main refrain.

Beautiful and this last stanza bowled me over. Thank you for writing such a wonderful piece.

For life itself is the prime opus,
a celebration of unity in diversity,
and the rainbow is the main refrain.


And today is National AIDS Day. A day to remember, to teach, to learn and especially, to love.
