It was sunny
when I walked into the mall today.
When I walked out,
the ground was soaked.
But the sun was still trying to shine
through the rolling clouds.
Jackpot!
Prime conditions for rainbows!
I got in my car
and started hunting
for ribbons of color in the sky;
they weren’t hard to find,
just hard to capture on camera.
It’s kind of like
explaining a magic trick.
You can’t fully convey
how it blew you away,
but you feel compelled to try.
