The Whirling Rainbow



It seems like an ordinary Wednesday
sitting outside with the need to breathe
my heart heavy with ghosts of yesterday

The sky intensively blue with wispy clouds
I  slowly  drift away for a moment or two
a pair of fiery cardinals are singing loud

Opening my eyes, I search the pair out
what's all the fuss, on this warm spring day
 messengers from above,  I have no doubts

They  flutter with grace across a silent sky
captivating with their passionate spirits
I gaze heavenward with deep surprise

Oh, dear cardinals have you opened a door
between heaven and earth,  I clearly see
a sign that was not here just moments before

A full circle rainbow surrounds the afternoon sun
vibrant in hues, I strive  to take in the full view
I wonder how many see or am I the only one

Never have I seen anything so spectacular
awestruck, I stare at the spectrum of light
creator speaks, no need for an interpreter

The Whirling Rainbow - change is upon us
accessing the crystalline grid of consciousness
to expand your mind, your heart you must adjust

author's note:  I saw this mystifying sight
this week and it is my wish to 
bring honor to the gift of light
Have you ever seen the whirling rainbow?

peace, light and love to all!

  5. Wow! A portent for sure. What a wonderful thing to see. I have never seen a circular rainbow. But, once, I saw seven rainbows in the sky, at a time when my heart was heavy. I resonate with your closing lines - to expand our minds, we must adjust our hearts.

    1. Seven rainbows that would be quite the sight and it's very symbolic in so many ways. You were given a great gift my friend.

  10. I have seen a sun halo, but it was not as you described (no whirly rainbow), so I found this piece particularly edifying … in addition to being wonderfully rendered.
