MY TRIPLE RAINBOW

By Lawrence J. Laub, Jr.

Copyright 10-08-2007, All rights reserved.

I look at “Rainbow Remedies” . . .

And thought . . . “I guess I’ll try . . .

To work through yet another book . . .

And yet . . . I wondered, “Why?”

Maybe ‘cause the donor of this book . . .

oft’ gives me a nudge.

She knows that it takes wisdom strong . . .

To make this ol’ mule budge. 

Yet once I started reading . . .

It was hard to lay the book . . .

Down . . . because I needed . . .

“one more page” . . . “just another look” . . .

At all that wisdom . . . all that courage . . .

Printed there to see

So like that triple rainbow . . .

God has painted . . .

Just for me.
