Rainbows

RAINBOWS

Newton spoiled it all for me.
Rainbows were obviously 
God’s colour spree
He splashed about with glee.


Beauty was their strength and attraction.
Now it’s all just wavelength  and refraction.
 

Thank  God  though
Newton never saw  the glow 
Of  ice bows and fog bows 
I can still enjoy their shows.
