Wow! the colors in this rainbow. This may be the prettiest rainbow I ever witnessed. I love your color choices, the deep purple. the words sealed the deal for me.Just as good as the picture. Read smoothly and I enjoyed every line and quatrain. I was satisfied, translation, a happy camper! Not too long for me to read. Worth it's weight in gold, pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Fantastic! wackydo

This one and the Lemonm Cake one are like "Touched By An Angel" epsiodes - very heartwarming - impossible to read and not be touched by these. And of course there's always that one line - today's winner is "the drops were of wondrous belief" - you can feel the miracle happening - could it be any more perfect?

Great poem! Thanks for a little mid-day hearwarming.

So many children let down by parents - it is so sad.
The rainbow is such a wonderful testimony to God's promises.
The colours you use lift the mood of the poem too.


Warmly,

Juliette

A lovely story Lois, and heartwarming. The verse has a great little lilt and I like the rhymes as well, they're hardly noticeable except to punctuate the emotion of the read. Kenny

I am so glad that God is not man. His ways are past understanding. It is a feeling nobody can understand when He answers prayers and you witness it. Excellent poem. Thanks you for sharing. Blessings

I really enjoyed this poem and the message it conveys. Such a simple wish from a young child but one that is so difficult to try to fulfill. With love and devotion his aunt comes through.

LoannaLois, The picture you have chosen definitely is exceptionally a great choice to complement this poem. Each one of your verses are a spoken pieces of wisdom in a story/poem that is inspirational and enlightening. Very well composed with excellent rhythm and rhyme and a well needed tempo and meter. The rhyming was neither force nor labored while your rhythm flowed smoothly without your poem. This story is so very touching and remarkably close to being a tearjerker. This an excellent job all throughout this poem.
Thank you for sharing them posting this for everyone and maybe you have a good one would have you do and where you go.
Alex

What a lovely, inspirational piece of writing, LoannaLois. I felt as I read this that it sounded far too realistic to be made up, and then I read your author's notes. You know, one of those "Ah-ha!" moments? It is a beautiful story.

It's so nice to know that for some, in some corner of a world filled with hate, violence sex, immorality, death and famine, that miracles do come true, if for just one crippled boy.

Well done!
