The Rainbow

by

Anna McDonald


a symbol of hope

the rain is gently falling
while in the west
the sun is emitting its rays
to hang a rainbow
in the sky

the rainbow always
a symbol of hope

a symbol of hope
found in its colors

of red orange yellow
of green blue violet

red      for love and life itself
         orange      for vitality and vision
                   yellow     for stability and strength
                        green      for grace and growth
                              blue      for peace and plenty
                                      violet       for faith and faithfulness

the rainbow
always
a symbol of hope
