I LOVE RAINBOWS ~ as they enrich the sky
They are sometimes single ~ sometimes double
Always full of colour from pure white light.
But the expanded rainbow (shown) ~ is an
Entirely Different experience !
YOU become an integral part of it !
Sometimes a Rainbow ~ breaks is own boundaries
And embraces the whole Sky & Sea & Shore
And WE all become immersed ~ enclosed
INSIDE the all encompassing SPECTRUM
RED ORANGE and MAUVE in the Atmosphere
YELLOW GREEN and BLUES on the Beach & Sea
Sunlight refracted by unseen prisms
Somehow we're ~ Somewhere over the Rainbow !
Thanks for reading ~ have you experienced this ?
Comments welcome ~ Love to all ~ BRIAN XOXOX

- Comment from author about the poem: I love Rainbows ~ which are a daily natural worldwide phenomena ~ due to the refraction of white light into a SPECTRUM (R O Y G B I V) by prismatic drops of water. Sometimes a RAINBOW breaks it boundaries and seems to fill the whole of the Sky & Landscape (see photo) and YOU become an integral part of it ~ AMEN. Comments welcome ~ LOVE BRIAN ~ XOXOXOXOX

Beautiful sonnet in iambic pentameter! Wow! The picture that you chose is breathtaking to go with your sonnet. Paired together and they are magnificent! Hugs in spirit-Christina
THANKS CHRIS ~ You know just how much I like beautiful things ! For me the symbiosis between a picture and a poem is very important. I get a lot of inspiration for poems from pictures and v v. Often when I have penned a poem I search for a picture to illustrate it ! Is it a a Chicken & Egg situation ? Heavenly Hugs ~ BRIAN
Colourful and so meaningful - a lovely sonnet and do I see an acrostic in Richard Of York Gained Battles In Vain?
THANKS MICHAEL ~ Pleased you liked it ~ It could be an ACROSTIC if a sentence beginning wit RICHARD etc was appended as it stands we call it an AIDE MEMOIRE or a MNEMONIC OK ~ BRIAN
Beautiful! I pray to experience this for myself one day. -- phoenix
