"THE RAINBOW"

Folder: 
Spiritual

 

Once there lived a young lady,
who was most beautiful and petite.
But couldn't afford many things,
she had hardly any food to eat.
In all the times of her need,
she would often look and stare.
A rainbow filled with many colors,
Would appear in the air.

Yellow, green, blue and red,
colors of the air, light, water & earth.
The same colors that were there,
at the time of her birth.
So her inner voice says,
for each color you have seen.
I'll give you the definition my child,
so you'll know what that rainbow means.
The red is for the clay,
from which the root will grow.
Help you to better understand,
the foundation in the rainbow.
The green is fertilization,
to help the seed get stronger.
And turn itself into food,
for you to live longer.
The blue is for the water,
to keep your plant from going dry.
To help you stand strong and firm,
when you begin to cry.
The yellow is for the sun-light,
to make more of your plant to eat.
There's lots of food aronud you,
that I'v laid at your feet.
A rainbow is for your protection,
to clearly help you see.
That even though you are struggling,
I'v already taken care of what needs to be.
Then she questioned herself and ask
have I left you in suspense.
The young lady replied and said,
no My Soul, you've came to my defense.
For this I have all of my answers,
to many question's I had inside.
And for the rest of my life and then,
in you I'll always confide.
Thank You inner self for coming,
and explaining the rainbow to me.
The rainbow of many colors,
will now be my guide to see.

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Everything we need is before our eyes, all we have to do is look around for what Jesus has laid before us, and know that he gave it all with his life!
