The Sign of the Bow

The Sign of the Bow
by Belinda van Rensburg

A veil of misty droplets hung
Colored by the rays of sun;
Fair arc set in the rain-washed sky
Where God's wing'ed creatures fly.

The multi-colored painted bow
Serves as a sign to man below;
Set over land and oceans deep
Reminding us God doesn't sleep.

He promised nevermore to send
A Flood to drown those who offend;
And then He sealed His promise thus -
A true love-letter writ to us.
