We sat drinking coffee
Looking out across the lawn.
The raindrops falling like diamonds
Enriching our lives as they fell.
Then it happened,
It appeared before us.
A rainbow shone,
Shone on our lives,
Showing us all
That our lives were good,
And all will be well
Within our own worlds.

You need rain for a rainbow Andy, but you also need sunshine.

Yes we had both, it was a good day.

We have rainbows nearly every day. There is even one on our license plates. Your beautiful poem reminds me not to take them for granted.
You are so lucky to see them every day, it is quite something when we se them over here.

Always a magical sight -
They certainly are Michael.

Lovely. I'm fond of rainbows. Some say it's God's promise never to bring the floods again, others say there's a pot of gold at the end of it. Either way, they're pretty to look at!
Yes Clara, rainbows are wonderful, as to the promise of no more floods as you know it has been a bit damp here recently.
That pot of gold is in the beauty of nature's artwork.
