Sweet Rainbow Sling

When the rainbows upside down 

The big worded 

Circumzenithal Arc 

But sweet slither of light, 

Is not raindrops 

It’s ice crystals 

It’s from clouds 

Like a swing 

Or a sling 

In the air 

A smile in the sky 

In the halo

Family 

Like the moon

Is all angels 

Flown down 

There to rock 

And roll 

Back and forth.

It’s a quarter circle 

On the Zenith 

It’s all chromatic threads 

Like a seat made of 

Moon beams or Sunrays. 

Yeah, beautiful and bright. 

Why are there so many songs about 

Rainbows? 

When the sky is just as busy 

With slings

With halos 

With a smile 

In the sky 

To remember

The then  

And the now

And forever

For so many before 

Were lover enough 

Reminders enough 

For ever after love 

To keep smiling.
