Eh . . . We had another of our routine afternoon showers
this afternoon and the rainbow revealed itself.

the multi-hued colors of the rainbow
are wilting and withering
as I sit here thinking ancient thoughts
mesmerized by the quickly fading rainbow
as the crypt looms closer and closer

Sometimes the "crypt" can appear as a 'pot of gold' depending on one's point of view. You know, 'going to their great reward' and all. Still, from anyone's view or perspective, they're right.

For me Jerry, I'm just to right of center on that rainbow, moving clockwise.

You're always a good read Jerry...Keep 'em coming. No need to fade with the first few rainbows. There'll be others.

Loving Linny Jean is poetry.

Thanks, Ari, for every word. Oh, I'm not fading in my thought process, the other kind of fading? The physical kind? Eh, yeah, I guess.
