It had been a long, long time,

Since I saw that rainbow appear in the sky,

It was of the colors so spoken about,

I am sure there are the other colors interspersed within it unseen.

~

That beautiful rainbow gave me hope,

From the weariness of life’s challenging woes,

The once unspoken, or seen by all,

That rainbow gave me the hope I longed for.

~

I know that its brief spell across the sky,

Is its way of hiding between clouds,

To tell a world of tardiness, that it will shine and cast its colors,

Only when the rain has washed out all its grime.

~

No more, no more fear in me,

I have survived the grime and the ills,

I have encountered a rising now,

I have been anointed by a blessing.

~

No evils or man’s diseased thoughts,

His manipulation to sabotage,

To kill me off was his undoing,

For now all mankind knows of his tiresome deeds.

~

That beautiful rainbow that shows itself,

After that nourishing rain, and the screening of the Sun,

I am the lucky one, I am the chosen,

For my story is now breathed by all,

The once unspoken, or seen by all.
