When the doves cried for you my one true love, I heard them in the cemetery as we buried you; the sound echoing in the trees, as I said aloud a prayer for you and those gathered. When the doves cried for you my baby boy, the angels turned away in tears; you never saw the sky and never felt my kisses, did you hear the lullaby I sang just for you. When the doves cried for you daddy, they must of know how shattered my heart was; never again your smile or laugh to hear, and never again your touch upon my hair. When the doves cried for you mommy, I fell to my knees weeping for I still needed you; oh, why did God need another angel, I will honor your love for flowers with a garden each year. At your graves I listen to the doves crying .

Then John gave this testimony: “I saw the Spirit come down from heaven as a dove and remain on him. John 1:32 NIV Love the dove reference for by this spirit from heaven coming unto Christ to spread among His children to bring unity , bringing your family together in spirit, I will always be praying for you my dear friend in the loss of your loved ones, while giving praise to God for your gift in writing to express the depth of God's love upon you

Reading this I discovered the flowers are for ourselves. And the dearly departed are the flowers you bring. Just like the words you have writen. they become them and last longer than the flowers. This one touched me.
