Flowers


Flowers on a first date Flowers just because Flowers in the garden a question is asked Flowers in your hands as we have a ceremony Flowers surrounding a home of our own Flowers in your hair as we laugh and hold hands in a million different places Flowers in a vase on your hospital table, well wishes sitting near them Flowers on top of a wooden box Flowers on a grave Flowers in my hands because you aren't here to hold them
