The Rainbow

Elise and I flew to Nevada early this month to attend the funeral of my dear Grandma Young, who passed away after 89 wonderful years of life. It was truly a celebration of her life and love, and a reminder of

Heavenly Father's Plan of Happiness.

During our stay, a rainbow arched perfectly above my parents' home, and I thought of Grandma, and this little poem by Sarah Josepha Hale:

O beautiful rainbow;--all woven of light!

There's not in thy tissue one shadow of night;

Heaven surely is open when thou dost appear.

And, bending thee above, the angels draw near,

and sing,--"The rainbow! The rainbow! The smile of God is here."
