James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Dramatic Verse

Darling Daughter Take This Holy Stone-

My mama as I was a little 12 year old girl she gave me a diamond
A little purple diamond stone
She said here girl this is from my mom, 
your grandmother we’re passing it on down now it’s yours
A little diamond shiny bluest/purple diamond
I thought of it as a gift far better than a rose
Mama said darling girl;
This is our families royalty uphold it
And be proud to be whom God our Lord has promised you to be
Here is the stone
Now take this Holy Stone
Wear it in/with dignity
Show God who you’re meant to be
And when you are alone
Fall on your knees and phone home
Call out to Jesus
Jesus
Jesus
Pick up your heart and call out
Jesus
Jesus
Darling daughter pick up the stone wear it well
And praise the Lord
