Rainbow

liquid prisms fall and tumble
in the distance there's a rumble
lightning flashes far away
someone somewhere has a day

with a rainbow in the sky
mystic arching omen high
above and out of reach
it's a sign that we are each

children, eyes full of wonder
alerted by the sounds of thunder
to the sky and its ethereal
living light which now we are all

allowed to glimpse for a while
realizing that the smile
now found on each face
is filled with meaning as we taste

electrostatic air behind
where the rain fell, where we find
ourselves now believing
even as the rain is leaving

we are one, we're a part
of all of life, from the start
and through our journeys every day
everywhere and every way
