A Free Gift After A Rain Poem by Valsa George

A Free Gift After A Rain

Rating: 5.0


Lo! A spectrum of colours
in the misty cerulean sky
God's benevolent gift
graciously bestowed
after a light drizzle

A rainbow-
nature's lovely poem
written on the wide canvas
an arch spanning
the Earth and the heavens
a painting
with colours overlapping

warm in glow
radiant in splendour
emanating light
triggering joy
staying amid drifting clouds
waving at us in cheer

Life expands and pulsates
eyes are raised
to a vision grand
mind takes flight
to Heaven's glory
a transient reminder
of the beauty promised for man

Oh eyes,
feast on this celestial sight
this scintillating spectral aura
and get drowned
in its magical spell!

Hey, why not ride upon the wind
To loot the pot of gold hidden at its tip!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
After a cloudy sky and a slight rain, as we see a rainbow, our hearts are lifted to the heavens in cheer. In the same way after the crucifixion of Christ, today as we celebrate Easter... the resurrection of Jesus, our hearts are overwhelmed with hope and joy!

Wish all my friends a Happy Easter! !

Wonderful....nature always indicates its presage and blessings on us by sudden heavenly soothing showers...be it festivals or rituals or godly birth or demise....today it is Easter... the blessing indicator is the rain and the gift is the rainbow....your poem gives immense joy to me as much as your joy you get watching the rainbow in real.....beautiful craft

A pot of gold as if inviting, O come on the clouds' wings, Come rob me, lovely style.

I like the celebration in this, Valsa. And I fail to think of how or when this sign can cease to make us wonder. -Glen
