A very well-written poem about your life and work. I think your students do their best every day to impress you for the way you treat them I am sure they live to please you.

Comment from aryr
Very well done Christine, it is a wonderful tribute to both nursing students and the instructors. I enjoyed the way you indicated a typical day and the fact that you remembered the praise. Sometimes the praise alone can make or break a day. very much appreciated and enjoyed. Nice rhyme pattern. Thanks for sharing.

Your cheery poem flowed right along with good meter and rhyme.
Your days are so busy, but I can tell you love it. What a way to start the day, seeing a rainbow.

Comment from Bridget Myer
Christine, the imagery within this piece was uplifting and pleasing.
The ability to draw me into the piece was refreshing and encompassing, I could almost feel me walking beside you.
The rhyming within the stanzas was refreshing and well placed.
Thank you for sharing your Rainbow Bright with me

Comment from Mary Hollingsworth
Well it appears that you experience 2 rainbows in one day one from walking in the rain that was outside as you walked into your class with your umbrella. And then the final rainbow after a day of teaching students the things that you had inside of you to share that really seem to blow from what you taught them and they got it

Comment from Mark Valentine
First, what a noble and admirable occupation you have. It makes the world a better place. Your poem is a great tribute to it. I love how the last line gives new meaning to the first. The iambic tetrameter is well done as are the rhymes. Mostly though, I love (and could learn from) the attitude of your poem - walking to work knowing you're about to do something meaningful and valuable. Thanks for this one.

Comment from apky
It is not often tha t someone so totally enjoys their professional as well as feel that it is "A rewarding job and this is just a reflection of one of my days and I did start with a rainbow and drizzle rain."
Your positive outlook made me read the poem twice just to savour it.
Very well done.

Hello, great entry for the challenge. I thought the picture suits the poem when you open this window, nice and bold, and the poem is lovely with beautiful imagery. The author notes are good, too, nice of you to share your personal info like that, and it made the poem more real because you know it's based in truth, I saw nothing to fix and thanks for sharing your writing, Ana.
