4 Apr 09 - Rainbows

4 Apr - full rainbow
4 Apr - full rainbow (2)



Before I left for work, I was blessed enough to be able to not only see this beautiful full rainbow... but to capture it on my camera.

There is a poem that I learned as a young teenager that flits through my head each time I see a rainbow....

Priorities

take time to smell the lilacs
and smell the warm bright sun.
take time to look at rainbows
don't wait til work is done

there will always be a cobweb
some fingermarks are rust,
weeds to pull, a lawn to mow
or something gathering dust

we must remember lilacs
bloom just once a year
and you can see a rainbow
only when it's here

~shirley harvey~

looking back on this photo and remembering this poem at this time.... I find so much more meaning in it..

enjoy the little things around you.... you don't know what may happen tomorrow!
