Thank you for the five stars and the comment about the "bow that is Tied to God's promise to never flood the earth again.
There is a lot to read about a rainbow, I guess I never really gave the real significance of the rainbow some thought. I knew
they are awesome, beautiful and a pot of gold should be at the end. I once tried to tract one down to get to the end.

Once again thanks and I will read more about the AWE of a rainbow. God bless.

There's nothing like a bright, beautifully defined rainbow after a hard rain to lift us up and set our spirits soaring, artisart4u.
Good 5-7-5, more senryu like than mere 5-7-5.

The poem has a nice flow with a message of seeing a beautiful rainbow. This is a good idea for a 5-7-5 poem, good use of syllables. The picture depicts the poem nicely, good choice. Thanks for sharing, good luck with the contest.

Yes, I think that, no matter how old or jaded we get to be, rainbows always have a way of stopping us in our tracks and reminding us that there are still wonderful, magical things in this old world and we should be mindful of them. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for the five stars and comment. Once I even followed a rainbow.

A fine, cryptic poem that describes the feeling we experience when a rainbow appears. The second line is a great choice for the 7 syllables. The illlustration choice fits perfectly. One punctuation suggestion: remove the comma after "Awe." Very nice work.

Thank you for the five stars and comment. I used the comma as a pause maybe I shouldn't have.
They say you can use too many commas sometimes.

Great illustration choice. Haiku rules followed perfectly. Love the "optical phenomenon" used to describe a rainbow. GOOD JOB!!

Optical phenomenon is smartly put! I've never quite heard them put that way before, but I like it!
Beautiful artwork!

Your word choice is accurate yet different to describe the rainbow and the word awe is a good choice for such a lofty description of the rainbow.

Nature puts on displays that no human can rival. With all our technology, the world around us is still more amazing than anything we can create. You catch that spirit in your verse. An excellent pairing of art and word.
