As I mulled over whilst in the shower what photos I could present for the weekly challenge to show Roy G. Biv (all the colours of the rainbow red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet) knowing I didn’t have a particularly good rainbow photograph my eye lighted on a wool thread artistic piece we have hanging on our wall. It seemed the obvious answer to fulfil the requirements although I can’t resist and the rainbow has gone it too.

The beauty of this rainbow is that we got two for one. Perhaps the possibility of two pots of gold. The other suggestion was a gallery which as a whole would give the entire range of colours.

About Irene Waters 19 Writer Memoirist
I began my working career as a reluctant potato peeler whilst waiting to commence my training as a student nurse. On completion I worked mainly in intensive care/coronary care; finishing my hospital career as clinical nurse educator in intensive care. A life changing period as a resort owner/manager on the island of Tanna in Vanuatu was followed by recovery time as a farmer at Bucca Wauka. Having discovered I was no farmer and vowing never again to own an animal bigger than myself I took on the Barrington General Store. Here we also ran a five star restaurant. Working the shop of a day 7am - 6pm followed by the restaurant until late was surprisingly more stressful than Tanna. On the sale we decided to retire and renovate our house with the help of a builder friend. Now believing we knew everything about building we set to constructing our own house. Just finished a coal mine decided to set up in our backyard. Definitely time to retire we moved to Queensland. I had been writing a manuscript for some time. In the desire to complete this I enrolled in a post grad certificate in creative Industries which I completed 2013. I followed this by doing a Master of Arts by research graduating in 2017. Now I live to write and write to live.

Beautiful rainbow colours, Irene. And it looks like that pot of gold is just within reach!

I need to ask Ali Isaac where the idea of the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow came from – she is the font of Irish knowledge. Wouldn’t it be nice if true, especially with a DOUBLE rainbow! Dang those leprechauns!

If you find out Noelle let me know. It’d be a good tale to be sure to be sure 🙂

Now that seems a much more sensible thing to do. Back breaking work digging for a pot that may not be there but a wish dreamed for can often come true. Hope yours did.
