Rainbow Flow

I touch the arc of the rainbow,
just to watch the colors run.
Across the sunlit sky as though,
the Springtime dusk has begun.
Yet a fiery sunset, cannot be outdone.

This nice.....I particularly like the idea of touching the arc to watch the colours run as if it was wet paint mmmmmm lovely imagery....and thank you for the third place in CRISIS...i was worried because a number of soupers didnt "see" the key words like "sank" "shot up" etc which are obviously related to the japanese attack......best wishes as always...Syd
