That both are barely out of reach, slightly intangible with a morsel of what is real and a dollop of the imaginary. Then I thought, wow, the rainbow is just out of my reach, a fingertip away, like my daughter was 14 years ago (as a deadbabymama). She was probably the last real rainbow I really touched but didn't.

Almost...well, majestic in a way don't you think?<BR/>I have seen double rainbows at the beginning of each of my four pregnancies - I always took it to mean that although there are things out of our control, everything was going to be alright. And, in fact it was. Might sound corny, but when i see a rainbow now, I stop what I am doing if I can and just listen.
