Rainbow Connection

On the other side, we are pure light.
On this side, we are fractured.
Green envy seeps into sorrowful blue.
Sometimes, we are fiery red with rage,
melting into soft pink marshmallows.

Peace flows when we are still and centred.
Calming the dark clouds that threaten
to smother our hope and joy.

We came here to experience feeling separate.
To remember to reach out and connect 
with the pureness from which we came.
We are all broken, earthbound and scattered.
Observing life in all its splendour.

Perhaps sorrow is the colour of an angel’s tears?
Glittering stardust falls as she whispers,
“I’ll help you, just ask,”  as we jump!

“Oh, brave, brave soul”, she cries,
with a knowing we will return
after hating and hurting – learning.
Glowing stronger from the taste 
of sweet chocolate and salty tears.

Colours are painted across the sky
to remind us that we are displaced reflections.
Sweet multi-coloured swirls of feelings.

We live in a body filled with rainbows,
light and an angel’s well wishes.
Weaving a rich tapestry from our stories.
One day, we will reach the end,
but there lies no pot of gold.

As we fly free from this adventure,
we realise, at last, as breath departs,
that the treasure of life was always the reward.
