Two Roses An Hour

Let's plant trees
  and let's plant flowers
One tree a day
  two roses an hour

If we do this for a year
  there'll be no room
for the cannoneer
  or the bombardier

A dream, you say
  I suppose you're right ~
At least we'll smell pretty
  when we fight...

Your "Two Roses an Hour" would make everything look and smell so pretty. I love pink roses, can we have some of them??? Have a blessed day in your rose garden..................

Wouldn't that be nice. Tulips and Gerber daisies too? We all could use a 'bright and happy' right now.

Yeah, bright and happy does the trick for me too, Marikate. Thanks, Gershon
