The Stretching Rainbow

A season in the sun dances before my eyes
As if a rainbow cunningly glows from
Within the approaching shadows of clouds
That formed from a dark and lonely place
And have moved within the outer edge
Of my flickering candle that pulsates
A radiant breath of fresh air that repels
The impending coming of the ominous clouds

Just for today I can enjoy the magical colors
Of the bright and radiant rainbow that echoes
A blossoming flower rising above the thawing ground
As I breathe an everlasting gratitude for a love
That is destined to outlast even the darkest of clouds
That hovers above my head threatening to retract the rainbow
That so effortlessly emanates a beautiful reflection
Of both Heaven's revealed and hidden loves

So the season continues to dance and the
Candle continues to sway in the wind
Moving to the rhythms of time that
Are giving birth this very moment
To a soft and vibrant flower so humbly blossoming
That not even a dark and ominous cloud
Pointlessly hovering over my head can
Rain a single drop of despair upon the gratitude
Pouring from my heart and reflecting a defiant glow
As a rainbow stretches from high above stretching
From one dark and ominlous cloud to the next
