I
was
told
to
get
back
to
my
seat
&
pay
attention
...
BUT,
I
said,
"there's
a
rainbow
outside!"
I
was
then
told
to
raise
my
hand
next
time
I
had
something
to
share
with
the
class
...
SO,
I
raised
my
hand.
...
"Yes,
Elizabeth,
what
is
it?"
I
said,
"there's
a
rainbow
outside!"
I
was
then
told
that
the
rainbow
had
nothing
to
do
with
the
lesson
at
hand.
...
...
...
...
I
again
raised
my
hand.
"Yes
Elizabeth."
I
wondered
how
she
could
not
even
take
a
moment
to
enjoy
the
rainbow.
I
said,
"but
rainbows
are
nature's
way
of
bringing
joy
to
the
world!
And
it's
a
joy
to
be
in
class
&
also
get
to
see
a
rainbow!
Isn't
it
beautiful?"
The
room
snickered
&
the
teacher
exasperated
said,
"why
yes
Elizabeth,
it
is
a
joy
to
be
in
class."
...
"AND,"
....
I
said,
"to
see
a
rainbow!"
...
....
.......
I
can't
remember
what
class
that
was.
BUT,
I
can
still
remember
that
rainbow.
I
can
still
remember
sitting
in
that
classroom
looking
out
the
window
...
staring
at
that
beautiful,
brilliant,
rainbow!
