From a Biblical Perspective

This being the month of June, it is with great pride that the piece I’ve submitted in this issue is one that depicts what I believe the rainbow truly stands for according to the precious Word of God—as written in His Holy Book, the Bible.

A Token of God’s Promise

Dear Lord!

Not only hast thou given

Thy vow

to never again punish

the grievous wickedness

of the world

via the waters of

a great flood—

but, Thou hast gone

beyond that, O Gracious God

by sealing thy

promise

with an awesome, heavenly sign,

the rainbow—

that beautiful arc

imbued with all

the prismic colors

our eyes so love

to behold!
