i stepped out the door
to walk in the rain
ignoring city sounds
of traffic and horns
just feeling the sprinkles
gently coming down
aware of the sun, shining on my face
my hair transformed into
ringlets of curls
and i gazed into the sky
because i knew it would be there
lady earth was whispering
look at the rainbow, i?ve drawn on the sky

i wondered if anyone else had seen it
and if they did would it affect their soul
could they learn to know the beauty
would they love her for what she is
always there to allow a smile
always near to whisper something
could their hearts give to her
all the love she so deserves

i remembered to thank her
and give her my love
for the beauty she shows me
for the peace she brings
everyday worries always disappear
when i stop fearing
and allow her blessings

i noticed then the rain had stopped
and the sun was even brighter
the sounds of the city
and hurrying people
where returning to my focus
i was smiling
my eyes were twinkling
as i thought of a saint
who had given me comfort
and i?d bet he felt the same
