Rainbows and Waterfalls
A stream above. A pond and stream below
between is a waterfall that glows.
Sunlight there shines at an acute angle though
giving delivery of a baby rainbow.
It’s a temporary show.
Nature’s an artist who exhibits on the go.
To capture one through a lens is a marvelous photo.
As seen by Constable, North, and Church, though
in their eyes, and replicated on canvas, it is…. art.

You gave me some wonderful imagery here. To capture that sight in words, on canvas or in a photograph, displays the mind of an artist. Nicely done MF. Happy Friday. Sunlight on water is mesmerizing. Rainbows more so.
Thank you, Cassie. I started looking at photos of waterfalls and then discovered some with rainbows and became intrigued by them.
Lovely writing ) I wrote a poem about a rainbow today may post it tomorrow
Thank you, Caring dove. I'll give your poem a read.
Excellent write
Thank you, Tony.
You're welcome
Waterfalls waves rainbows all beautiful in nature. Art is in the eye of the beholder. A very nice writing about a beautiful subject.
Thank you, SB. So much beauty in Nature.
OK – so you couldn’t be bothered putting it on canvas, you mislaid your camera, but you decided to let us know anyway…. So glad you did, Phil – I saw it perfectly.
Thank you, DD. I\'m a lousy photographer and an even worse artist, so I stuck with what I know. Thought you might say something like me chasing rainbows.
You would be hard put to second guess me at any time when I fly off at a tangent.... can't even second guess myself, sometimes...🙃
Rainbows are art, they are magical and makes everyone feel happy to see them, I always believed that is why sometimes we need that rain. 🌹 🌈 Beautifully crafted dear Phil.
Thank you, Teddy. There are so many different types of rainbows, all shapes and sizes. They're like people.
Wonderful words Phil and so true, waterfalls are so delightful to see.
Andy
Thank you, Andy. Waterfalls or even cascades are so refreshing to be near and delightful to see.
Your words have painted a beautiful picture of nature.
However, I would say that nature is the canvas and the true artist is God our creator.
Well done.
this is nothing short of brilliant .. and the image you gave of a baby rainbow is going to remain with me for a very long time indeed .. thanks Phil, tis good to be back sir .. Neville
