A Rainbow Somewhere

A Rainbow Somewhere

 

After a heavy downpour

One looks for a rainbow.

Seeking beauty in store

With the sky aglow.

 

Dreaming something to be,

Living on faith in God’s care,

Knowing the promise indeed.

A rainbow somewhere.

 

Life has many pitfalls,

And paths have speedbumps.
Blessings seem to stall

And stumbling blocks triumph.

 

A light shining against the grey,

Against the bad times,

Against everything standing in the way.

A rainbow somewhere is filling the sky.

 

Lose not your faith when troubles rise,

For God does his best work behind the clouds.

Lift your eyes

And His grace will be found.

 

Reaching dreams,

Leaning on hope.

Knowing that in all things,

For you, God has a rainbow somewhere.

Melinda, Such a finely expressed idea, a finely written poem. Great wording, especially this: "For God does his best work behind the clouds." Simply beautiful, simply strong and from the heart.
I am trying to respond to more of my read requests, including yours. Please be patient.
take care...dan

There's such a beautiful message in this piece. This poem is so inspirational. I think anyone going through hardships (someone who believes in God especially) will be able to draw strength from this poem. "A Rainbow Somewhere" was an excellent title for this poem. Thanks for sharing.

So beautifully painted the positive and inspiring words for the moments of darkness... God does not give struggles to us to break us, He does that to make us strong and we can be fully assure that whatever He has promised us, if we have faith in Him, He will perform it...

Excellent message and I loved the patient and caring words of the poem...

Sincerely

somewhere there is a rainbow,in my heart,or in the sky,down deep in my soul

[Melinda McQueen]

I like that.

I see so much beauty in your words
I guess in nature there is so much divine signs of acceptance and love ....... whoever would look up at the sky and not see the purity of God's love falling on all humanity .....
There isn't much to search for ..... it's all right there and you seem to have perfectly placed it into words
