Saw a multi-colored UFO fly from one side of me to the other for 2-3 mins.

Witnessed 1 object large in size (can not approx. how big) approx. 3/4 mile away hovering approx. 1000-2000 feet high. There was telephone pole, and the object was behind the pole. The pole was approx. 20-30 feet away. First saw the object mid to high side on the pole. The object rose and hovered Apr 15 sec before shooting across the sky in a rainbow fashion ( in approx. 1 sec) to the left and hovered for 2 min on the left side approx. 1/2 mile away. Could see it through the tree that was in the back yard. The object was orange, red, yellow, with a dome shape on top and a think band in the middle with no definition of a bottom. It made a low hum sound as it flew across over head in a rainbow fashion. It was brighter on the left than on the right by the telephone. After approx. 2 min it just disappeared.
