Rainbows in our windows

Youngsters across the country are taking part in the movement known as the Rainbow Trail.  The idea has taken off and rainbows are now seen in windows all over the U.K. helping to cheer us up-a symbol of hope.

Our RDN photographer Mike Davies would have been out chasing rainbows for us now had he not been self isolating.  So instead, to lift our spirits, here are some images taken in happier times when  he pointed his camera at the sky from  his own back garden.

 

THE RAINBOW

Boats sail on the rivers,
And ships sail on the seas;
But clouds that sail across the sky
Are prettier than these.
There are bridges on the rivers,
As pretty as you please;
But the bow that bridges heaven,
And overtops the trees,
And builds a road from earth to sky,
Is prettier far than these
