Jelly Beans
"I like white ones."
"Here are two."
"I like black."
"But there are so few."
"I want pink ones."
"Two for you."
"I like orange."
"WHAT shall we do-
there isn't an orange,
I've looked them through."
"Awwww."
"Wait! here's a red,
and a yellow too-
THAT'LL make orange
when you get through."

The Jelly Bean Prayer
Red is for the blood He gave.
Green is for the grass He made.
Yellow is for the sun so bright
Orange is for the edge of night,
Blue us for the sins we made,
White is for the grace He gave.
Purple is for His hour of sorrow.
Pink is for our new tomorrow.
A bag full of jelly beans
colorful and sweet,
Is a prayer, is a promise;
is a special treat !
Happy Easter!! |

Thank you to an anonymous friend who
e-mailed me this poem!
In a bag of jelly beans you have many different jelly beans.
Each jelly bean has something special which makes
it different from the others.
A bag of jelly beans wouldn't be
attractive if they were identical.
You don't know exactly
what a jelly bean is like unless you taste it and see.
Jelly beans are just like people--
you've got to get to know them.
Each person brings something special and worthwile
to the group, but it is
not always evident on the outside.
Thanks for being such a wonderful jelly bean! |
