Haiku Heights





the sky was alight
with such promise and colour
momentarily


rainbow connections
illusory and fleeting
doomed to fade away

    Why does the rainbow fade away? beautiful things in life are momentary.

    Gods reminder and all..should we look until it disappears or turn away before it does? always a bit of a dilemma..

      Good question. I know that I not only look but have this incredible optimism that I can reach up and touch it and it will always be there for me...of course this never happens but then again I am a very unworldly person or (stupid) as some might justifiably say:)

    doomed to fade away - very strong ending, so true, makes you appreciate the moment more.

    Anyone ever wonder just where they go? I once witnessed three at once in a valley in Scotland. Spectacular.

    Sad how the colour in our lives sometimes fades - but there is always the hope of another rainbow...

    Beautifully worded, rainbow however lovely is doomed to fade away, but during its brief existence it brings so much joy and hope.
