My heart Leaps up When I Behold A rainbow in the Sky

 

I visited Loughshore Park today and the steel silhouette bandstand sculpture by artist Skelton Rainey looked amazing in the autumn sunshine. There was also a double rainbow in the sky. I am reminded of William Wordsworth's famous poem:                             

My Heart Leaps Up When I Behold

My heart leaps up when I behold

            A rainbow in the sky: 

So was it when my life began; 

So is it now I am a man; 

So be it when I shall grow old,

           Or let me die!

The Child is father of the Man; 

And I could wish my days to be

Bound each to each by natural piety.
