The Rainbow

I saw dark clouds filling the skies
It brought tears to my eyes
Suddenly the rain came
adding to my pain
The darkness of my soul
became a black hole
No light could enter
I could not find my center

I felt lost and alone and I felt
my heart like a stone
Nothing could atone

After a time the rain stopped
the clouds blew away
I saw the sunlight piercing it's rays

A rainbow appeared along with an angel quite clear
with love in her eyes and crying crystal tears

She told me to let go of my fear and hate or suffer needless pain and a dire fate

Know that the heavens are always here to remind you
to hold onto what is true and dear.

Listen to the voice of truth
no matter how painful it may seem
for you are responsible for your dreams

You may not like the various angels sent to you but, their truth they speak is tailored for you.

Many may not understand your ways and you may not understand theirs
yet do consider everyone is on the same journey to self
it's just that they are on a different path.

If on occasion you meet a few you can relate and they likewise share the same fate

Learn from them and love them for their gifts
for they likewise seek the same from you.

Let not your arrogance and ignorance shadow your inner beauty
For you know that is not your reality.

You were created out of love and given certain gifts that you may offer them to others in name of the God you dance to from above

Each moment wasted in anger and regret is a moment you cannot get back for love and joy on a bet.

Hence, look from within and find your truth for you will see the light behind the clouds

You don't need to constantly seek approval from the crowd for they are equally lost and found within the clouds.

Simply offer your love and let it embrace them from above
If they receive you then bless them.
If they reject you simply forgive them.

True freedom is knowing you gave in your capacity
and you did not lose your integrity or tenacity.

Always consider the demands that many place upon you is often the same they place upon themselves

You may not please or impress everyone
yet, that is not the goal
in life.

Just do what makes you happy and stop the strife.
You are not getting any younger or feeling any better
or wiser
It's time to change the visor.

Many will judge and criticize your thinking but do not fret
for everyone has their point of view

It doesn't matter because Heaven and Earth will still love you.

Years from now when your bones are resting underground all that may be said of you is you lived and died leaving not much of a sound.

Yet, know that no matter how bad things get there is a promise that heaven made
that the love it has for all will never fade.

Look for the rainbow and see the colors glow the pot of gold at the end is the love I send.

Thx Princess I only wish people here can somehow relate to this and see the beauty of a rainbow
and the message that God or heaven or whatever people believe in today that by grace we are given another day to complain, to whine, to laugh, to cry, to dance, write blogs and to love to hate and create threats of war and kill people for no reason to die. A wonderful world indeed!!
