PROMPT: March 16th - For Creation Saturday, write a story or poem about a rainbow and something valuable.

Rainbow

A rainbow spread across faith's firmament,
Proclaiming God's ancient covenant,
Uniting beneath it arc the children of the Book1
And all the other religions sent by God.

Saint Patrick's Day Plans:
To Celebrate Women's History Month at the Baha'i Center

I don't celebrate Saint Patrick's Day, my plans for March 17 are to attend the devotional services at the Baha'i Center on West Oakey Blvd. in Las Vegas. The theme for the March service is Two Wings of a Bird - The Equality of Women and Men. The only other thing I plan to do on Sunday is to make coffee and log into writing.com for a little bit.

"War and its ravages have blighted the world; the education of woman will be a mighty step toward its abolition and ending, for she will use her whole influence against war."
