The grief of a northern winter arrested by a rainbow, I really love that line – “burning the clouds” stirs my heart.

Paul, thank you so much for your kind words. I always have headaches on days that are ‘blanketed’ by grey clouds. The barometric pressure always gets to me. Thank goodness I live somewhere where we do get a lot of sunshine so those days are few and far between ☺️👍
Your quadrille captures that melancholy wet blanket atmosphere, Christine. We’re having one like that today – again. I hope we have a rainbow at the end of it too.

Reminds me of a rainbow struggling through darkness, trying to get out.
Yes, the message is that there is always a rainbow, we just don’t always see it ☺️
