Danielle Marie Delango

There comes a time for each for us
When nothing can be done
To ease the pain and sorrow
Of losing a beloved one
It's at these times we need
More than we ever could say
The quiet touch of understanding
The loving look or gaze
So rather than try to take away
The grieving feelings inside
Just know that I am thinking of you
And time will be your guide.

I'll paint you a Rainbow

to hang on the wall,

to brighten your heart

when the gray shadows fall.

On a canvas of joy

outlasting the years,

with a soft brush of sweetness

to dry all your tears.

I'll paint you a Rainbow

with colors of smiles,

That glow with sincerity

over the miles.

On a palette of words

I will tenderly blend

tones into treasures

of sunlight and wind.

I'll paint you a Rainbow

that reaches so wide,

Your sights and your sorrows

will vanish inside,

and deep in the center

of each different hue,

A memory fashioned

especially for you.

So lift up your eyes,

for suspended above,

A Rainbow designed

by the fingers of Love.
