FOR YOU...

I'll Paint You A Rainbow
Grace E. Easley

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...

WOW...IT REALLY RAINED!

The little stream, below our house, came down in absolute flood the other day...

This was after three hours of pelting rain! The taps in the sky had been opened up full throttle. Indeed some poor person's garden wall landed up on the other side of their street after the water had dammed up behind their wall. The power of water is truly amazing!

The University of Pretoria's Rag procession took place on Saturday afternoon. People lined the streets to see the various ingenious creations of dedicated students. Each float was a masterpiece, finally presented to the public after many hours of painstaking labour. Congratulations to all you amazing students and thank you for your entertainment! We enjoyed it thoroughly!!
