A Night Rainbow, The Moonbow

Waiting for Love

Night’s Rainbow, The MoonBow

A rainbow glistened in a dark sky

Spreading through starlight

Thunder roared as lonely clouds

Ripped into the atmosphere

Upon my wave of hopefulness

I search for you my dear

 

Miraculous Lights twinkle

Gleaming brilliant colors flow

Into my pleading heart and soul

I’ll wait forever, never to let go

Many years and many days

But nothing changed your plane

 

I danced for sweet rain to bring

You near, for the rare Moon’s

Bow to appear �" now I see

It’s half ring hidden in my memory

 

A hundred different ways to collide

With my propensity to laugh and cry

Waiting for drops to take my pain

Pretending my meek measures would

Make you smile, but life’s too short

For lonely clouds these parched days

 

Longing I asked the moon to come down low,

But the hellcats of hullabaloo said “oh no no”

You need only a mist to see his rainbow

Tenderly embrace our dark paradise

It calls for love’s blissful guise

Rainbow produced by the reflection of the moonlight, Moonbow, certainly a rare but must be a beautiful natural phenomenon.
Loved your imagery, the first 10 lines are my favourite, especially the given part is more than beautiful,

Thunder roared as lonely clouds
Ripped into the atmosphere
Upon my wave of hopefulness
I search for you my dear.

Well done, dear Dale.

I wasn't even aware of a moonbow. What sight that would be and now I know why you have waited so long for one as I would do the same. Hullabaloo, great word choice in that stanza. I enjoyed this piece Dale and if this didn't take you a week to write this, kudos to you. Nicely done.

It took 15 minutes and I hated it, so I changed it; never did that; probably needed to, but I like it better now!

Absolutely lovely! You had me from the title because a moonbow is such a rare and beautiful phenomenon, and you've carried out the image so skillfully with your words. And those words flow like a song. Awesome, Dale!

A rarity indeed to find such a pretty and perfect poem!
