Rainbows are so pretty

Day 3-National Find A Rainbow Day When I see a red, red rose, it reminds me to show love Or an orange sunset tells me to share joy Flowers of yellow guide me to help others to be happy The green grass of Spring reminds me there is a promise of rebirth The sky so blue encourages me to be hopeful An indigo night sky helps me to comfort others And violets show me that all things on earth are from God.
