Returning the Rainbow

Returning the Rainbow

A Poem by John Alexander McFadyen

Returning the Rainbow

I am so sad to have draped your heart with tears

and to have caused your gentle soul such pain.

If I deprived you of love then I am a fool,

no greater fool would see you wilt,

gasping for air and drained of the hues your beauty

radiates across this Earth.

And that you held fast your faith in love

is little short of wonder and tells me

the true depth of your adoration.

It cries to me from your very core

that I am at last in the light of the woman

for whom I have yearned.

So I will return the colour of the rainbow to your skies

with passion and devotion beyond compare

and I will pledge myself to thee

more certain than the setting of the sun and the rising of the moon,

clearing the crystal waters of your tears.

A tender loving romantic write, the one to make women swoon. I can't help it if I prefer lemons to rainbows, but this is a sweet poem nonetheless.:)

Ha 'M' just me expressing feelings again. Many thank yous!
Awww this is a sweet love poem, I love how it flows. My favorite part is "and I would pledge myself to thee, more certain than the setting of the sun and the rising of the moon, clearing the crystal waters of your tears." But all of it is wonderful.

Great Job
