Morning Rainbows

By MayaElyashiv, Ramat Hasharon, Israel

There are rainbows on the walls
on my ceiling, on the floor

Little spots of color
that were never there before

Each splash is vibrant, energized;
yet so completely still

I wish I could somehow catch them
and drink of rainbows my fill

Aww! I love this! So simple and yet so poetic...:) The only thing was the last line; "and drink of rainbows my fill." The placement of "of" made it a tad awkward, though now as I say it a few times it seems to flow better each time...Good job! 5 stars :)

I was very hesitant about that last line, because when I read it in my head it sounded right but when I asked people to read it aloud it didn't...it's one of those ones where there's a weird pause in the middle that if you don't know it's there it sounds really off.
