Rainbow

Red, The color of the blood he shed From his hands, his feet, his side he bled. For you and me The wounds there for all the world to see.   Orange, the sun that shone on a crown of thorns Carrying the cross on a bright early morn. He complained not, jewels of sweat. Crying out for respect.   Yellow, Flowers on the fields of calgary Corn growing in a hurry To nourish And replenish   Green, The grass beneath his feet A soft lucious carpet, sweet. A blessing to to those, an image on a sheet. A shroud  of mirrored refection   Blue The sky, spirtual  re birth Cleansing  the earth Washing  away all our sins And let man again begin.   Indigo,The oceans wide On incomming tides Giving rain That sustains Our very life   Violet, Search your soul And again become whole. And remember he died so you could live. So love one another. Give his blessing to your enemy, be his brother. Rejoice in his word.
