Where The Rainbow Ends Poem by Gert Strydom

You said that it is like
a never-ending rainbow,
stretching over the sky,
from horizon to horizon
a sure sign from God

that something great was sprouting
from the words that I did write
that will reach the hearts
and minds of people
right across the globe,

but at that moment
I only saw a dull blue sky
with the blazing sun
scorching down

and not the rains
the rising seeds
that was still to come
and I stated that
all rainbows end some time
at which you just shook
you grey head
and said my boy,
you got to have faith.
