If I Could

Kathy Lee Sayre

If I could paint a rainbow, for all the world to see, I would use the brightest colors that the Angels gave to me.

The beauty of the prism would make the Angels smile, and surely they would stop their work for just a little while

If I could paint a rainbow for all the
world to see, I would send straight to heaven To my son Matthew with love from your mom, Kathy Lee
