THE RAINBOW
Even the rainbow has a body
made of drizzling rain
and it is an architecture of glistening atoms
built up, built up
yet you can’t lay your hand on it,
nay, nor even your mind.
-D. H. Lawrence

I thoroughly enjoy D.H. Lawrence – and would love to see a rainbow again!

There’s an icon of Christ there that I love! I’ve also wanted to go to Mesa Verde one day, similar to St. Catherine’s maybe. The earth and habitats so beautiful.

Lawrence’s image is striking, memorable, accurate. But there is a missing something. If it is hard to pin down what, the photograph below contains it, a sort of rainbow which you can’t exactly see, but then you can. Nice pairing!

A kind of spiritual rainbow, I mean.

Thank you for pointing that out, Albert. I didn’t use that photo for that good reason, but only because it was the only one I liked, after a long search. Maybe St. Catherine was helping me!

A fascinating place, and the place where it is is fascinating! So high up, and remote.
