Jelly Bean Poem (Jelly Bean Prayer)
written by Charlene Dickerson
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. |
Black is 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. |
An egg full of jelly beans, Colorful and Sweet |
Is a prayer, a promise, A loved one's treat!! |
| Charlene Dickensen, 1997 |
We then put a jelly bean of each of the above colors in a plastic egg to take home and tell of Jesus' love!
