Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Rainbow

Written: June 4th, 2024, For Andrea Dietrich 

                         ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the rain, my eyes were blithe,
Rainbow spans the sky, deft and lithe.
For a terse glance, it will remain.
My eyes were blithe . . . after the rain.

Shades of beat! crimson-cyan blue.
A quite brilliant and sparkly hue.
Incite me to yearn for this treat.
Crimson-cyan blue, shades of beat.

With charm, I stare, watching it fade.
Impressing splendor, God has made.
Auspiciously, an awe-sight rare!
Watching it fade with charm, I stare.

This stunning sight cannot grow old.
Just to grasp, it's a drill of gold.
Always an enchanting delight.
Cannot grow old this stunning sight.

It is always fun indeed and just reading this makes me long to see one right now. The emotion you capture before, the indifference, adds to the pleasure of this happening.
