Strict Haiku

beautiful rainbow

     reminder of God’s promise....

          follows gentle rain

There was a gentle rain recently, falling from a sunlit sky.
Afterward, a beautiful rainbow remained.

Nice way to follow up your contest Charles, with a very nicely written, traditional Haiku of your own. Good job. Joe
