Rainbow Promise

Rainbow Promise


You have to know where the light is
To see the promise
In the dark.
You can catch glimpses,
Without knowing.
If you stare at the dark on those caught times,
You’ll see the coloured promise.
Stare.
Study.
Wonder.
Know the light behind you.
Study its source.

Then,
each time you see the dark,
Drenched in dour and damp gloom,
Look.
With the light behind you.

Courage.
To meet the dark.

“I promise.”
“No more destruction.”
Life.
Light.
