Formulas and Rainbows

When I was young, I was keen on rainbows.
Magic on a rainy day.  
Enlivened by the chromatic dispersion of color...
-white intercepts wet-
-blue higher than red-
The magic just got a little deeper.

Creation reminds us of the times we forgot our redemption.
A promise was made.
Is my promise as strong?
Does my being emit the component colors?
Do I remember?
Or do I now look at rainbows as a new theology - where the magic has turned from a rainbow to NiSIN(CTAi)=NrSIN(CTAr)....?

Let's not fight each other with theology.  Or feel the need to create an explanation of things that we were just meant to enjoy.  To enjoy the magic isn't to lose the formula, it's still there, coursing through the DNA.  It's just much more pleasurable and poetic to look at a rainbow than it is to view a palette of DiSIN(CTAi)=NrSIN(CTAr) in the sky....don't you think?!
