I had subway for lunch today
and because of the way the sun
was coming through the glass
I had a beautiful rainbow on my hand
that made my day.

It made me think of how often
we take little things for granted.

Rainbows when you lest expect


So many people these days
take so much for granted,
little things like a smile
get misinterpreated
and I really don't understand it.

It's easy to make a small difference
in today's world of hate,
just by being kind to one person
can change the world forever
for love and kindness it is never too late.

.....Sometimes the best rainbows appear
when you lest expect them.

Excellent poem. Its nice to have something light and feathery to read. Its true, nowadays everyone is too on edge and looking out for all the imagined terrors that they fail to see kindness when it offers them an apple. they can only see the razors that aren't even there.

This poem went right to my heart..all the little thing we take for granted, like a little bird on the sky, the colored leaves in the autumn or the rainbow shining through the window...there is so much beauti to be seen, but often we look the other way...the pain, suffering and hate...how much of that can mankind take...a smile, a blinking eye, a little kiss on the cheek...there are so many little things who are so beautifull, but all taken for granted...its sad but true...

Yes... We take so many little things for granted. And we can never regret what we never missed. Like a rainbow in the glass, a butterfly in the grass, a bird cooing to its mate, an early worm resigned to its fate....
Reminds me of something I wrote. Its called Stop To Look. Its about the same thing, but I still need a reminder sometimes... :)
Thanks for sharing this.
