Description
"Live lifted up in rainbow light.
Soar among the clouds.
Rejoice in the rain when storms arise"
- From my poem "Welcome The Light", copyright 2018.
This rainbow crowned the blessing of a desert summer thunderstorm when the sun appeared under the clouds minutes before sunset in Saguaro National Park (West) near Tucson, Arizona. Rainbows speak to our heart and soul. They fill us with awe and love, and also symbolize the miracle of summer rain in the desert.
