Let Us Bow Our Heads In Prayer

my heart was touched in a very special way-- when a lady gave me part of her bouquet! :O yellow roses, withdrawn from their upright crowd their tall silent heads not drooped, but bowed :)

I can see the surprise. Put's a smile on my face too.

cool :) the story behind it is: all the droopy roses were taken out of the bouquet of "perfect" roses, and i wanted to adopt them, so she let me take them home (to put them in water and perk them up)... she had a positive note: "their heads are bowed" -- this was the beginning of my poem! :)
