Seeing a double rainbow for the first time is nothing short of magical, especially through the eyes of a child. It’s a moment of wonder, where the world feels larger, brighter, and full of endless possibilities. The vibrant arcs in the sky spark joy, curiosity, and a sense of awe, reminding us all of the beauty and surprises nature holds.

The Double Rainbow

The rain had stopped, the sky still grey,
Puddles glimmered where the raindrops lay.
And then a gasp, a cry of surprise,
As colour bloomed across the skies.

“Look! Look!” the child exclaimed with glee,
“Two rainbows! They’re smiling at me!”
Eyes wide with wonder, feet rooted in place,
Magic unfolded in nature’s embrace.

The first arc is bold, its colours so bright,
A bridge to dreams, a feast for sight.
The second, softer, a shadowed glow,
A secret whisper the heavens bestow.

“Is it a treasure? A sign from above?
Are the rainbows talking, sharing their love?”
The child spun around in a joyful dance,
Lost in the sky’s enchanting trance.

Every hue seemed to sing and play,
Painting the world in a magical way.
Red for adventure, green for the trees,
Blue for the rivers, gold for the seas.

The rainbows faded, but the joy stayed,
A memory woven that will never degrade.
For in that moment, the child had seen,
The beauty of life, both grand and serene.

Two rainbows arched, two promises made,
Of wonder eternal and magic replayed.
Through a child’s eyes, the world’s pure art,
Two rainbows, one sky, and one glowing heart.

World over things are getting slightly better, but we are still not out of the wood yet. There will be a new normal when things start going back to normal (or as normal as it can be) and the world we know would have changed completely. This panademic is a defining moment for all of us. Yet, in all this misery, we have seen moments of hope, resilience and how far the human spirit can go.

A rainbow has been seen for centuries as a symbol of hope, a promise from the greater power that things will get better

The Rainbow

When things seem to be at rock bottom,
When you feel broken and numb,

When nothing in life feels like it is going your way
When you feel bound, sad and gray

That is when you step outside to get some fresh air
To think, to feel and maybe say a little prayer

Then you look up and see the aftermath of the rain
The sun peeking out of the clouds and the you feel hope ignite within you again

You see the sky light up in a huge smile, you see a rainbow,
And you know that things will be fine, your face now has that glow

Follow that rainbow, follow your deepest wish,
You will get there one day, your life’s race will reach the line that says finish

The symbol of hope, of a new beginning
This rainbow is a sign that will make your heart sing!
