The Rainbow

The yonder Green Hill

Sits starkly framed

Beneath a dark rain laden

empty sky

 

The Sun

A disguised alchemist

Places a tiara

high above the elevated area

 

The Triple Crown

Bedecked with myriads of

Vapours refracted colours

Illuminates the gloomy surroundings

 

Soon the sky deluged with rains

Of the sun’s kisses

Is awakened

Heralding the return of

Circling birds

filling the air with avian songs

◄ The drop of water that made the Silver Birch blush

Really _ the dead woman was her mother! ►
