I ambled in a dream
along a forest path
I sang distractedly,
a deep joy within
myself
Musing of you..
pondering on the
wonder of life
When suddenly a drop
of rain, there upon
me fell
Quickly then, I
stepped aside to
shelter
Drawn into the
branches of a tree
And feeling just a
little weary
I leaned upon the
gnarled bark, and
sighed contentedly
A wind began to
stir, rustling in
the leaves
I reveled in the
refreshment, so
sweet upon my lips
Soft little
raindrops, I heard
each gentle drip
Every touch I felt,
surely heaven-sent
And thus held in
this wondrous joy
I laughed aloud with
glee, and sweeping
up my trailing
skirts
I twirled there in
the clearing
My heart about to
burst
Eagerly I scooped
leaves up, from off
the forest floor
Just to share,
tossing handfuls in
the air
I licked dewdrops
from a leaf
My soul without a
care
Then high above me,
the dark sky flashed
with thunder
And the clouds began
to part
I paused, the sun
peeped through with
light
To smile upon my
path
And there, so very
close, so near to
almost touch
A treasure appeared
like purest gold
I stared
transfixed...
What secret would it
hold
There in the
heavens...the
wondrous Hand of God
He danced with me,
His life, His love
impart
Then He left for me
His promise...
Him and I forever
A double rainbow in
my heart

you from

When there is
enough dark clouds
only then can we see
the rainbow.
