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.
