DOUBLE RAINBOW

I have held off on posting anything new because I didn't want to knock Big George down. Alas, a beautiful double rainbow last night demanded attention.

After a shit day at work yesterday, I went out on the lake during the warm evening hours under a light rain. It was a wonderful ride. My surf ski glided along effortlessly. I was already beginning to forget about work when I noticed a stunning double rainbow along the shoreline. After rounding a finger of the lake I could suddenly view the entire breadth of its rays. I gazed from left to right and back again in awe. I looked around to see if anyone else was doing the same thing, but there wasn't a soul to be seen. It was overcast directly above, yet there was a setting sun to my right unabated by clouds... and the rainbow on the left was dazzling with brilliance as if to upstage the sun itself.

I quit paddling and sat in reverence, allowing myself to be swallowed by the enormity of it all.
