Cat, Domestic Cat, Flower, Flower Meadow, Meadow

On Mothers Day I plant flowers, it is a special day for me; mom and I could plant for hours, always plant blooms ... her dying plea ! So, on this May day I plant seeds, sunflowers, phlox and flowers wild; will keep out all those tangled weeds, mom's whisper- doing fine my child ! _______________________ May 07, 2022 Poetry/Lay/A Day in May Copyright Protected, ID 05-1454-162-07 All Rights Reserved, 2022, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, A Lay For A Day In May sponsor, Andrea Dietrich, Judged 05/16/2022 Third Place

Oh I am so sure, that the intoxicating fragrances of the beautiful flowers you planted for your mom mingle with the love that was and will be forever, which existed and always will between you both on Mothers Day in May. She is so proud of you Constance. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Valsa, thank you so much for the visit and comment, yes, my mom and I had a very strong and special bond that even death could not destroy, I promised her I would always have flowers, a garden in her honor I plant every May and it becomes a beautiful Zen place, I feel her spirit there, and thanks for the encouragement, blessings ~Constance

Lovely, Constance. We always took mom to the farmer's market for Mother's Day to buy bedding plants. Thanks for the contest placement.
