Who says miracles don’t happen?

by Lauren Scott

Last Wednesday morning brought us
a stunning sunrise and double rainbow.
I wasn’t able to get photos,
but a friend of mine grabbed her cell phone and captured these!

Who says miracles don’t happen?

I’m sharing a poem from my recent poetry collection
that ties in with the miracles of rainbows:

Darker than the Deepest Sea

Life is like a package wrapped in festive paper.
The matching ribbons fascinate in their delicate,
entwined company, fingers gently unravel,
heartbeats increase from excitement.
We lift the lid, peek inside, letting our
inner child frolic to the forefront of our minds.

But unlike recyclable paper, the gift of life
cannot be tossed back into the universe.
There is no spare awaiting on the sidelines,
and we should be mindful that the contents
require tenderness with instructions solely
for each one of us individually,
because as visible as a ruby rose
in a garden of white daisies…
we are beautifully unique.

Once we follow these
with gratitude and vivacity,
the purpose of our gift will reveal itself
as naturally as moonlight on a night
darker than the deepest sea.

  5. How beautiful, my friend.
    “as visible as a ruby rose

    This line is stellar as it speaks to all of us and YOU as well (of course)
    I’m glad I read. Thanks for sharing it. Blessings
