Ms. Edna Ed E. Payne Jones

If I could, I’d write you a rainbow

And splash it with all the colors of God

And hang it in the Window of your Heart,

So that each new God’s Morning,

Your eyes would open first to God’s Hope and Promise.

If I could, I’d wipe away your tears

And hold you close forever.

But God never promised I could write a rainbow,

Never promised I could suffer for you,

Only promised I could love you.

That I do.

Grand Ma
