HEY I finally made it to  MY 100TH POST.

As you span across the sky,
You are visable to my eyes.
From the rows of your majestic colors,
You are like no other.

But you only come out now and then,
No one is for sure just when.
God put you in the sky for a reason,
You come out in all four seasons.

Some say at your end is a pot of gold,
This is what stories have told.
But as you span across the blue,
We know this is not true.

Soon you begin to fade,
In your own special way.
It is time for you to go,
Good-bye to you, my beautiful rainbow.

Cathy, this is beautiful, really well written Cathy, absolutely beautiful. I'm a push over for stars and rainbows, now if only I could have them together, I'd be delighted evermore.
Congratulations on 100 and this is such a beauty. I really love this  
Take care

A beautiful 100th post, congrats. Please don't say there's not a pot of gold at the end, that means I've just wasted all these years, 215 pairs of sneakers and lord know how many rental cars trying to get to the end. Oh, darn! Any way your not meant to find the end, it's the hope it represents. Love this poem, say hi to Mark.

Congrats on 100...at least it's not years.
Rainbows are truly wonderful, aren't they,
and you express it well.

Thank you all for your kind words.  I didn't think I would get here ever.  Janet, he always goes nuts in everything he does.  Ron, he is sitting right here so I told him and he says hi back.
