    FLOWERS OF MANY

    Flowers for mom
    What ever I would
    Bring to her
    She would hug me
    Shower me wit kisses
    And say
    Thank you baby
    We had many many flowers
    All over the yard and edge fields
    Seven sister I do remember those quite well
    Cuz we did have many from one end the other
    They did grow faded pink most were
    But mostly bright red they were
    We had daffadil of many
    Buttercups
    All yellow and gold
    Day lily and
    Dandy loins by the dozens
    We even had water lily s
    Out by the foist
    Are the spring near by
    Flowers of many
    Were my mom favorite

    Mother Love like a flower has to blossom
    and grow! With tender loving care,
    it could happen, you know. For love
    like a flower, must have a seed to
    start. You had a seed in you and it came
    out and blossom into a women now (ME).
    And Mother And from making more seeds
    it make a garden of love to live forever. Flossie

    Mother favorite Roses
    She is so beautiful,
    She is elegant and fragile
    She is very sensitive,
    She is Nature’s wonder
    She smells so special,
    She is the symbol of Love
    She brings peace and happiness,
    Truly She is the queen of flowers,
    Yes, the lovely Rose will always bloom,
    And be the reason for thousand smiles.Me

    My mother certainly did love the flowers — lilacs, tulips and peonies were her favorites. Thank you for this beautiful blog and treasured memories. Such gorgeous images and pieces posted. Big Hugs and Happy Thursday from Southern California.

    MOTHER’S LILACS OF SPRING

    Mother loved the lilacs
    that bloomed every year
    the pride and joy of her garden —
    I remember them well.
    They filled up
    the once-empty corner
    of our big back yard
    and our hearts
    And their sweet fragrance
    always meant to her
    (and to me)
    that the deep snows
    of winter had melted away,
    that life was returning,
    that indeed it was spring.

    But nothing in life
    ever remains the same;
    and eventually we moved away
    from the lilacs of spring.
    And every year since
    those sweet spring days,
    I’ve looked for the lilacs,
    so few to be found.
    But today I went looking again
    for the lilacs of my youth,
    the fragrance I’d never forget
    and the wonderfully subtle colors
    that always meant it was spring.
    And I found them today
    in a most unlikely spot
    and inhaled those memories,
    planting them in my garden
    as I recall my mother
    and her lilacs of spring.
