This question is based on Charles Dicken's Great Expectations.
My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began
So be it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
And I could wish my day to be
Bound each to each by natural piety'.
My heart leaps up by W. Worthsworth.
The above poem essentially deals with the theme of
old age
childhood innocence
beauty of the rainbow
fatherhood
