Rain’s Afterglow though tiny puddles there depth is endless as skies reflections receive their sunlit kiss it looks as if one could dive into the heavens though the puddle’s really only one/eighth-inch thick perhaps it is this way with the beauty of one’s soul a superficial look to the depth of one’s skin will not exact the wonder held within yet to peer into the eyes intent to see a world may be reflected back to me and in that world a love, a faith, a hope much greater than one might ever dream ©August 21, 2002 I was so certain there'd be a rainbow with the bit of rain and brilliant sun, but, alas, I found none. Somehow, though, I think it's in my heart, anyway, because of how this morning feels. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

You had rain, too? Wasn't it wonderful? I actually went outside early early this morning and stood in the drops as they started to fall, then went back to bed feeling very refreshed... |

Yep the rainbow came within a half hour I think. It was complete and against a steel blue sky. Very pretty! Thanks, Sunshine and B.C. Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |
