I caught me a rainbow!

Even the little birdies came out to play around the rainbow!



Somewhere Over The Rainbow... or more like in front of it!

Caught these a couple of days back... An early morning surprise

Right after dawn, when the sun was just spreading a blush over the skies
I was lucky to have walked over to my magic window
And lo and behold...
I ran for my camera!
Right there... in front of me
Was the biggest, best-est, brightest...
Rainbow, I had ever seen!!!

It was a full bow (180° anyway)
An arch so big that I couldn't even capture it in one frame
So, here are the two halves... that make up the rainbow of my lifetime!

A rainbow so clear, I could almost see and count all the seven colours!
So clear, no break nor clouds, could stop it from forming a full arch over the scene in front of me
Complementing all of this, was a blue sky brightening with the day
And the sun's glow adding on the rosiness and warmth

Somehow the ends were even brighter
Were there pots of gold at each end, lighting up the bow above?
Then, very slowly it started to fade away...
Sadly, I took the last photographs, hoping I had done it justice

The Rainbow Connection

Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, and rainbows have nothing to hide
So we've been told and some choose to believe it
I know they're wrong wait and see

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
Who said that wishes would be heard and answered when wished on the morning star?

Someone thought of that and someone believed it
Look what it's done so far
What's so amazing that keeps us stargazing and what do we think we might see?

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection
The lovers, the dreamers and me
All of us under its spell
We know that it's probably magic
Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name

Is this the sweet sound that calls the young sailors
The voice might be one and the same

I've heard it too many times to ignore it
It's something that I'm supposed to be

Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers and me
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection, the lovers, the dreamers and me

'The Rainbow Connection'
~ written by Paul Williams and Kenneth Ascher, was originally performed by Kermit the Frog (Jim Henson) in 'The Muppet Movie' in 1979. The song was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Song in 1979.

Love the 'magic window'!! 😄 Ive never seen a 180 deg rainbow! Im sure it was breathtaking😁
A while ago there was a small rainbow here and i couldnt stop taking pics of it! Was so beautiful but the camera just didn't seem to capture the moment😆

Am so glad to share it, and that you like it! It was quite unbelievable... especially when I first looked out the window and saw it! You're right - I couldn't stop taking pics of it too... lol This one was too clear and bright to not have captured it! You're right, most of my previous were not quite visible...
Happy Sunday!! 🌞

😀 thank you! You too dear @ackhoo!!

Did you found the gold bucket?

Nahhhhh, didn't move fast enough... 😔

all you need are some unicorns now.

Unicorns? And I thought I saw Pegasus... 😉
