Rainbows



God swirls his brush in colors lush and paints the canvas sky. Colors so pure tears fill my eyes.
This portrait made by sun and rain takes away all my pain. Trading my troublesome sorrows, and filling their speaces with the hope of endless tomorrows.
My troubles forgotten I stare in awe thinking about what he has done for all.
The church bells ring as the sparrows sing.
This miracle lasts only a short while, making his children young and old smile.
Just as quickly as it's come, it's gone.
Everything peaceful as the birds harmonize in song.
