If Roses grow in Heaven
Lord, please pick a bunch
for me.
Place them in my
Mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.
Tell her that I love her
and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her
is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within
my heart
that will never go away.
HAPPY 90TH BIRTHDAY MOM!
Love you forever and ever!!
