My thoughts on the rainbow

The rainbow

by Graham Byrne

    The Rainbow
            The rainbow is Gods covenant 
            From dinosaurs to smallest ants
            Perhaps, once creatures, all could see
            Gods wonder, cre-a-tiv-it-y.
          
            I really find it sad today    
            That man has dared to make a play
            With rainbows almost baring shame
            One day the Lord will come again
 
            He’ll be on a cloud there riding high 
            With angels gathering in the sky
            I’m sure there’ll be a rainbow then
            He may even use it to descend
            
            Man has almost cast aside
            His love for God, he takes no pride
            At wondrous beauty God had made
            He’s lessened beauty to a shade
            
            When I look up into the sky
            And see the rainbow riding high 
            I find I feel God’s being mocked 
            By those who dare creation rock
                                                                                                                                          
            It is hard to look and feel the joy 
            I felt when I was just a boy
            Those who play the rainbow game 
            Will end their life in bitter shame

For me the rainbow is God's covenant.
Man has dared to use a beauty God has given and if anything used it without respect.
