The Rainbow ©JK.Leahy
There is a rainbow
beyond the shadow
Where blended lights mellow
darkness lurks in shallow
Afraid of radiance’s glow
in obscurity, crevices open
Mind unlocks, and lets go
Beams will seek night
where bad memories hide
Upon the altar, a peace-offering
In spirit we build oneness
to end all writhing
And, we touch the rainbow

a sweet gift …. thank you. I used your name in the title of something I wrote the other day … and I liked it while I was writing it then I walked away and came back some time later and I thought it was sophomoric sappy sweet bullshit …. I posted it for maybe as long as thirty minutes … I didn’t think the sweetness or whatever it was isn’t a voice I want to strive for … it’s syrupy sweet but I’ll let you be the Judge of that … now remember …. your name is in the TITLE of the post/piece .. somehow I will get it to you … where did you get the poem about ‘fear’? it’s beautiful …… it gives … ks
