Christmas Eve Rainbow

Christmas never had religious meaning for me or my family; but my mother used to give it meaning anyway. We'd celebrate in the traditional German way, on Christmas Eve in the evening. It was important to her, and she gave it magic.
Only of course, all that died with her; hence my shift to doing something to mark the solstice instead.
So today, I couldn't quite believe my eyes when that rainbow appeared... on Christmas eve, perfectly positioned over my mother's last garden. It seems strangely fitting. And it was beautiful.
