Rainbows

Green, yellow, red and colors in between
gracefully arch to earth
painting a lovely scene.
Climatic conditions cause these displays,
but they are symbolic
in enigmatic ways.
Some see messages of celestial grace:
sacred benevolence
that will fretting erase.
Visions with pots of gold often enchant:
a wish for easy wealth
with huge windfalls to grant.
People of every nation, creed and race
fall under this aegis:
a rainbow interlace.
Transfiguration at the rainbow's end
yields astounding change:
a metamorphic blend.
