Greetings,

I wrote this poem, A Rainbow of Hope, in 1995.  I will share with you soon as to
who God chose to help inspire it. 

A RAINBOW OF HOPE

TODAY I SAW A RAINBOW.
IT LOOKED LIKE ONE THAT I HAD NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
IT WAS WARM WITH VIBRANT COLORS.
I WANTED IT FOR MY VERY OWN.

THE RAINBOW WAS SHIMMERING WITH LIGHT
AND FULL OF WONDER.  IT GAVE ME PEACE IN MY HEART.
I KNEW FROM THIS MOMENT, THERE WAS HOPE FOR MY HEALING
AND I COULD LEARN FROM THIS RAINBOW CHART.

I HEARD A SOFT WHIRRING SOUND
LIKE THE WINGS OF A BIRD BY THE SEA.
AND AS I LOOKED AROUND THIS PLACE,
THE LOVELY RAINBOW WAS ENFOLDING ME.

I GIVE THANKS FOR THE RAINBOW REVEALING MY MISSION
FOR THE BLENDING OF COLORS COME FORTH.
A SOFT GENTLE STIRRING CAME ALL OVER ME.
MY HEART FELT THIS VISION OF HOPE, FOR MY LIFE'S WORTH.

IT IS AMAZING HOW THE SPIRIT
CAN EFFECT OUR STRIVING TO BE ALIVE.
THIS NEW 'AWAKENING CALL', WAS HOW GOD REVEALED
HIS LOVE THROUGH THE 'RAINBOW OF HOPE, FOR ME TO THRIVE.

WE SHOULD NEVER UNDERESTIMATE THE CREATOR.
HE HAS A MISSION FOR EACH OF US IN HIS OWN WAY.
IT STARTS WITH HIM AND THEN IT IS OUR CHOICE OF 'WILL'.
OUR MISSION WILL BEGIN FROM THIS POINT, LET'S MAKE IT TODAY.

GOD BLESS!
