The other day I found this poem I wrote about six years ago. What better place to share it than here 
It's written from the viewpoint of a rainbow.
My Colours
Red
I saw the blood shed like a crimson river flowing from this broken body
blood for a thousand generations
A reason for living; the source of love deep and endless like a dream in the deep of the night
Hallelujah
Orange
The time of harvest when the world unveils its radiant dress of light and life to reveal the serene beauty of change and mystery
I saw this holy life emerge on earth; a life brimming with God's love and compassion
Hallelujah
Yellow
I watched as the magnificent light spread like fire through the nations
And so many lives were saved and made new in the warm glow of the son's love
I could feel the strong, bright, burning desire, joy and passion
Hallelujah
Green
Green, when the world is made fresh and new like a young fawn bounding through endless fields of thick, luscious wildflowers
And in the midst of this vivacious, spirited time the life of love and innocence is slaughtered for millions
Hallelujah
Blue
Tears fell from the languid eyes of those who never stopped believing
Never doubted while in the very core of pure hatred and loathing
Tears that God did not dismiss; did not overlook, but were held close to his ever faithful heart
Hallelujah
Purple
Royalty; King of kings, Lord of lords
Powerful, Almighty, Gracious, Holy, Merciful
Saviour. Risen. Alive.
I witnessed the greatest miracle this world has ever known.
Hallelujah
And I will keep pouring down on the world this symbol
In a clouded and shadowed world
Love never fails
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
It's written from the viewpoint of a rainbow.
