June Rainbow ©2007 Terry GorleyI received this wonderful poem written by Jacqueline Ramm from Jocelyn Chouinard in her inspirational newsletter.
A RAINBOW
When you think your road is rocky and a bit too steep to climb,
When you think your guardian angel needs to work some overtime,
When your personal jigsaw puzzle has some pieces that won't fit,
When life has no rhyme or reason and you can't make sense of it,
YOU NEED A RAINBOW
When the clouds are dark and stormy and have blocked the sunshine out,
And perhaps you start to wonder what this life is all about,
When your trials and tribulations seem to be so hard to bear,
And it seems there is no justice anytime or anywhere,
LOOK FOR YOUR RAINBOW
When the molehills seem like mountains and the obstacles are great,
When you feel so heavy laden and your worries just inflate,
When you can't see any ending to the problems that you face,
For they just keep on increasing and you need some breathing space,
PRAY FOR YOUR RAINBOW
It may be you need to look a little higher than before,
Or perhaps a little further to see past the clouds once more.
But you'll know it's worth the effort when your rainbow you can see,
And you understand the love behind God's creativity,
SEARCH FOR YOUR RAINBOW
For your rainbow holds a promise that this turbulence will cease,
And your inner conflict will become, instead, deep inner peace.
But if, though searching, you can't find your rainbow at this time,
Until you can, I say with love, you're welcome to share mine.
