I jumped across a rainbow
And left my ego here
Exposed to its reality
As nothingness and fear. I needed all my courage
To take that giant leap
For hypnotized in human dreams
My mind was fast asleep. But when that rainbow beckoned
I walked right through the night
I jumped across the rainbow
And fell into the LIGHT!

Tom
Love the poem and your rainbow photo is extra special! Such a rare occurance here in Ga.
Beautiful rainbow and beautiful poem...
carletta: Great rainbow, this is really nice.
How beautiful and delicate a rainbow Carletta. Superb photo! Delightful words to go with.
Great jump across the rainbow.
Congratulations.
Love the atmosphere in this photo: the minimalist tree, the minimalist rainbow: it's really great. I saw project yellow and looked about and realized that there is NO color here, still, except white snow and brown/black trees!
I like your combination of appropriate music, poetry and photography. Very nicely done. Greetings and kudos from deep south Texas.
Thank you for the rainbow, Carletta, and for the beautiful words.
What a beautiful rainbow! Let me know if you think of the blog you saw the tractor...I dont think I have seen it yet.
Thanks!
Beautiful rainbow, its been awhile since i have seen one.
Fantastic shot...
My SWF few from balcony in here Thanks
Nice shot...
Will you visit my SWF Thanks.
great job on the rainbow, love yr music.
I'm out and about visiting other Project Yellow entries. Yours is subtle and soothing. A very nice capture. Nice work.
Beautiful. With a soft look. :)
Beautiful photo and poem,and music to go with it too.Wonderful:o)
Fine photography. I like this example.

I didn't know that poem, it is lovely! Your photo is just right with it. We are to have rain this weekend, maybe I will catch a rainbow!
Wow, rainbows are my favorite and it is something I cannot seem to photograph. This one is fantastic!!
Close to the top of the list for "my favorite things" you'll find rainbows. They're magic to me. Lovely that you've found dual purpose to post this wonderful picture today :).
And the poem? For me an added bonus! Beautiful words to accompany a beautiful image.
Inspiring photo and poem Carletta! New word....inspiring :)
Ego in the poem caught my eye especially. Have you read "A New Earth"? It's not a New Age concept or a new religion/cult thing. It is just an extremely insightful look into the ego and being in the present. Noticing nature is a first step in the book.
Check it out if you like :)
Oh beautiful! Happy Friday!
This is a fantastic rainbow!
Excellent post, beautiful picture, well done.
Nice capture of the rainbow. Liked the poem.
Very fun -- nice idea to post a rainbow! It makes me want to watch "The Wizard of Oz."
I love the rainbow! They seem rare here---or is it that in the busyness of our lives we forget to look? Thanks for letting us "see".
Oh, and I am an educaator, too. Not quite retired.
Oh well, you'd think an educator could spell. Please excuse the typo.
How nice that the sky got all dressed up for your photo, what with the big pretty bow and all!
Beautiful!
Great shot! I love rainbows!
