....::::Where is my Rainbow::::....

....::::Where is my Rainbow::::....

The rainbow only appears after the storm...
The heavy weight of the rain only brings tears and forces me to mourn
The storm was a struggle this I know...
Thru all the dark times its hard to see just how much I HAD to grow
into a person with phenomenal standards

But is that the person I really want to BE ?
Is that the actual chapter I want you to read ?
I like to stand for something, so when you look at me this is what you will PERCIEVE..

A woman who begin the battle, faught the fight , and END the war..
who held LIFE in hand ..
as she stood there and just.... STAND
The warmth of the SUN coming IN..
as it bounced off his UNDEVELOPED SKIN...

Where is my rainbow as I cry within ?
As I held him close .. I looked up and realize the WAR had just BEGUN !

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Hola, This poem was written when I was in a very DARK place in life. We had just planned the birth of my AMAZING son and was expecting him to be born in Oct. However after 14 hrs of labor and 5 months pregnant we gave BIRTH to an ANGEL *Prince Collin*. I often visit forms where mommies and daddies were so EXCITED to get there RAINBOW baby. I didnt know what it was.. In my poem when I say.. Is this the person I want to be ? I am refering to ME being able to identify with parents that have a rainbow baby. I'd much rather have a BABY with out having the rainbow. ONLY soley because the rainbow... means.. the LOST of a child and the NEW birth of a child after the lost which is ** the Rainbow ** But.. TODAY I am smiling I am happy to say.... I have RECIEVED my rainbow he is now 2 and I wouldnt change ANYTHING ! I love him with my WHOLE heart :-)
