The Jelly Bean Poem for Grieving Families
RED is for my love for you that will never sever….
For love is not measured
by the time we had together…
But what’s
in our hearts forever.
GREEN is for memories that I always will treasure…
Although time may
pass… our memories will last..
Forever and ever
and ever.
YELLOW is for Sunshine that you have gave
to me..
You brightened up
my life and made my world shine
And will continue
to shine brilliantly for the rest of time.
ORANGE is for the candles flame I light in memory of you..
Flame that glows
so bright as I speak your name in prayer...
Asking God to hold
you close… until I join you there.
BLACK is for my grief from my broken shattered heart
Taking each day one
at a time..as I keep your memory alive..
Life is different…
I am different.. But I CAN and Will survive.
PURPLE is for the tears I shed as I remember you…
Precious memories
you left behind.. Preserved deep inside…
You will always live
on though our family.. Forever by our side.
WHITE is for my hope and faith in God above..
The promise of resurrection..
Knowing we will reunite..
Above the clouds
… over the rainbow… in His everlasting light.
PINK is for the signs you send from Heaven above…
Lighting my path
wherever I go.. And whatever I may do…
My precious child…
I will always love… and remember you.
