| rainbows | |

In the beginning, a wind blew through the darkness, and colours, hidden by night, suddenly grew where there was light - and bright they shone: red, yellow, blue: A carnival of colours, some bright and some odd - dancing to a tune written by God. But then: when mankind found rainbows he was blind to their sheen, and saw, instead, the gold in between, or at the end, he wasn't sure - he tried to bend the rainbow till it tore, till it broke, till he saw only the colours of his own greed: green for envy, purple for spite - red for hearts that bleed. Why do we always keep colours apart? a blue team here, a yellow there, let's not start on black and white for goodness sake. in the playground of life it is a mistake to believe what we have been told: Rainbows are not about gold or treasure or things of sorrow, but about hopes and dreams and the promise of tomorrow. God's promise echoes through the years: believe in rainbows, not greed nor fears - believe and you will soon come to see that rainbows are colours in harmony. Open your eyes, open your ears - listen to the colourful music of the spheres.
