Once the Storm met the Rainbow,

As it passed and cried “Oh my!”

“I lasted for four long days,

And you just a few minutes, aren’t you sly?

People waited days for you,

Prayed for me to swiftly pass by,

Here you are, the crowd’s hope,

Ending at the beginning, why do you lie?”

“I never lied” said the Rainbow,

“I never asked the people to cry

For me to arise, I come as I should,

People’s wish don’t make me fly.

I might not be that of a beauty,

But your ravaging winds make me seem high.

Your lashes lay waste upon their dreams,

While my small presence tear up their eye.

Your havoc defines my stature;

It’s a simple thing they don’t realize!

But they must learn the way to live,

As I end with a sad goodbye.

Good things seldom last forever,

And bad things hardly ever die.”
