A rainbow is a promise. Your lovely haiku really illustrates that with its metaphor painting a vivid picture of hope. Love the theme of the archer. Congratulations my friend on your HM!

Yes, a promise. It is nice to contemplate those promises when it feels like the world is crumbling around us. Thank you for spreading your positivity, Sam.

Ohhh, I love this. I wrote something inspired by my father, about the rainbow being a circle. The photo is breathtaking. I should post it here one day. Wish I could share the photo with you somehow. This is beautiful in so many amazing ways my dear sweet friend. :) Brandy
