For so long, for so many years, I’ve been looking at the sunshine and the rain and thinking, “The sky owes me a rainbow. It is too hot to wear a raincoat, but if I don’t wear one, I’ll get wet. The sky owes me a rainbow.”
But I didn’t see one. For years.
And then, suddenly yesterday, arching its way across the eastern sky, I saw one! As I watched, a small double rainbow emerged.
My skin tingled. I watched it until it faded away, wondering how the people in the building far away felt – the ones who were in the rainbow.
My heart was full. Somehow, I kept singing,
“Will we have rainbows day after day?
…
Here’s what she said to me:
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be …”
Happily, I hummed and sang. My day was made.
And then, today, I saw one that was even more beautiful! A true, complete rainbow, with all seven identifiable colours, curving its way across the sky! Almost close enough to touch.
Yes, there’ll be rainbows day after day!
If you just look and see!
Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be …
