Rainbow

rain comes unexpectedly
and i take shelter under a tree

looking around
for comfort in the cold

a bird sings
on a branch and

i listen to the notes
floating in the air

needles of rain
soft light arriving on the hills

a rainbow
bridging two feet
over there

i watch this beauty
i smile for a promise
that the Lord
has restated in my heart
