Flowers For Mother
I'd love to send you flowers Mother,
If there were some way I could.
For I know how much you loved them
And on you they looked so good.
We would pin them on your shoulder
And then take you out to dinner.
In a contest for best mothers
You would surely be the winner.
Hope you know how much we loved you,
The seven children that you bore.
We had our little rivalries
As to which one you loved the more.
You made us feel so special
And more precious than the rest,
For each of us was certain
She was the one you loved the best.
It has been a long time, Mother
Since we brought our flowers to you.
On this Mother's Day, dear Mother,
You must know we wanted to.
