The Rainbow

THE RAINBOW
By Jan Phillips
As I stood there looking at the rainbow up above
I thought it was a symbol of his great and wondrous love.
The more I stood and watched and marveled at the sight
It began to get very, very, bright.
My heart was filled with love, laughter and joy,
I was just like a kid with a brand new toy.
The Lord began smiling and laughing too
And then instead of one rainbow there were two.
I really enjoyed the time we both shared
I didn’t know how very much he cared.
In my heart of hearts I now know
He was giving me my own private show.
It was such a beautiful sight that day
Nothing else could have made me laugh that way.
I can’t say enough about that beautiful sight,
Or about how much I loved the Lord that night.
I know the Lord was there to share his love with me
And he wrote it across the sky for all the world to see.

Rainbows are such a wonderful display of G-d's love for us, and His promise. I never cease to have my breath taken away when I see one...like you siad, "A kid with a brand new toy."
Love your poem. Would like to see more.

I think this poem is as beautiful as any rainbow I've seen. Very nice.

beautiful.

I don't know how I missed that one. Yet another oldie but goodie that oneagleswings found buried in our little treasure of poetry. Very nice work Miss Cleo.
