Rainbow


On the way home from work today it rained.

The sun was shining in amongst the rain and there appeared a double rainbow.

I am fascinated by rainbows.  I can't look at them without thinking of magical things.  Or The Magic Faraway Tree.

A rainbow is one of the few things left in my life that has not changed.  It just is what it is and I love that.

This photo is taken just around the corner from home.  When I got closer to home it looked like the rainbow finished in the backyard of a house I passed.  It was so bright.

Wouldn't it be lovely if a rainbow had a start and finish point and you could see it.  Not for the pot of gold or anything but just to be near it.  Near those bright colours and magical aura.

Once my older sister was a very little girl she disappeared from home to look for the end of the rainbow.  She was found wandering the streets.

Maybe that is where our troubles start in life.

Looking for the end of the rainbow only to get lost on the way.
