One Pink Rose equals another Day Without You

Young seeds thrown upon unexpected ground

sunlight Spring garden basking in love

on Mother's Day I weep with joy

as a hundred pink roses grow.

I found butterflies
I found roses
what mattered most
words left inside
I never stopped
loving you Mum x

Love can live forever
death lives only once.

Thanks Aviva

I am now looking for a Mother's day card with a pink rose and kind loving words inside.

Death conquers life
It cannot conquer love.
