As I Wait......... Poem by Jeanette Telusma

As I Wait.........

Rating: 4.0


My heart skips with great expectation when I look beyond the hills.
I see a lovely rainbow so vibrant, so alive, and so promising.
As I close my eyes I somehow feel the texture of it.
The rainbow is soft and smooth as grapes.
The smell is as fresh linen in the month of May.
Oh how I long to lay freely over the rainbow.

I had a dream about it just the other day.
I sat on the dock of a bay, with my feet dangling in the ocean.
Oh how lovely the ocean appeared to me.
As I looked into the water, there it was....
A rainbow appeared, so vibrant, so alive, and so promising.
Again my heart skipped with great expectation.

The day will come, soon enough when waiting will be no more.
Until then, I will look beyond the hills.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Thoughts of the process I must go through to become a teacher can be overwhelming at times. But as I look over the hills I see the rainbow, and so I wait with great expectation.
