I am glad you were inspired by the Club's prompt and picture. I could hear the "dread of trumpets" and understand your urge to "flee" the "Stormy Bank". Sighs- Joan

The small church I attended growing up sang the hymn that begins "on Jordan's stormy banks I stand and cast a wistful eye--"every Sunday...the artwork had me scrambling for theme...thanks for reading and reviewing.

Thank you for sharing that reminiscence also. Well done- Joan
Comment from Pearl Edwards
Your interpretation is unique, you are climbing back down from the heavens and fleeing for another go. Well done with your take for the Picture This club.

Thanks very much for reading and reviewing my try for a different
interpretation of the rainbow picture...
Comment from Sandra du Plessis
A very well-written poem for the pix this club. A great interpretation of the picture you described here. When we are at the wrong side of fifty we start to realize how short life rearly is.
It is our fourth day without power, so I have limited time to review and write.

Thank you very much for reading and reviewing my Pix This Club poem.
I tried for Common Meter, and people here have been describing dying as crossing The Rainbow Bridge, so I came up with this.
Comment from QC Poet
A really good spin on the rainbow bridge and using the ladder to climb down as opposed to up. Great captivating read, Well thought out mix of meaning and warning.Thank you for Sharing your Gifts and insight.

I like to think "out of the box" as they yell on television...Thank you very much for reading and reviewing my Pix This Club poem.
Comment from Gloria ....
What a nice interpretation of this piece of artwork, Ellijay. You saw things that I didn't and managed to fully develop the theme from Noah's ark to finding a ladder back down to dirt to run away.
Very nicely done and you reminded me that I have entered this PIX this challenge too.
Enjoyed.

A really nice poem for this Picture This post, Red. I like your theme. Good rhyming. I particularly like stanza two, although all are good and follows in sequence. Marilyn

Hi Red,
Did you have trouble loading the image? Some members were not able to load it. I've contacted Tom. Seems to be some kind of problem. Please advise how IF your image loaded automatically. Thank you. Marilyn

I just saved the pic to my laptop then selected it like it was my own. It did not load
automatically...

Hi Red. Thank you for that info. I just e-mailed the pix privately to a member. A few people could not load it from the club page. LOL. I'm the facilitator and can't seem to enter my own post. Marilyn

This strikes me as deeply personal, Red, but I never know with you.
Someone told me God turned his frown upside down in the New Testament. A new God without blood in his eye. At least, that's what Jesus suggests.
I'm not a real believer, my friend, but if you are, I see no need to flee.
Peace, Lee

I have passed beyond the influence of clerics or skeptics, and go around howling "Oh, Lord(If there is a Lord) save my soul!(If I have a soul.) And I even borrowed that... I think, therefore...what? Thanks for reading my club response, Lee...

The local folk talk now of crossing the Rainbow Bridge rather than the River Jordan...

You are very welcome. I am glad to know this for future reference.

Great job on your entry in to this Pix This Challenge. I enjoyed this philosophical approach to this with the rainbow playing the part of a bridge to heaven. A good write.

Referring to dying as crossing the rainbow bridge has become common in my area...

You did a great job, LIJ. Your words flow smoothly with great rhymes and message. Your words flow smoothly. too/ You expressed what many may feel about their deeds when it comes to judgment day. But I'd rather take my chances with the rainbow to go it alone. Thanks for sharing. Jan

Thank you very much for reading and reviewing my Pix This Club poem.
Folks around here have begun to say crossing the rainbow bridge more than crossing the Jordan or Styx...
