Thank you for the flowers
you give to me each day
a blanket of warm sunshine
a smile's brightest ray
A few kind words, I cherish
worth more than any gold
given when much needed
feeds my weary soul
A simple handshake or nod
spreads the fragrance around
lifts my daunting spirits
when I'm low and quite down
A much needed prayer
a rose of elegance and grace
really touches my heart
I humbly accept and embrace
Ever close beside me
beautiful flowers does grow
or many gardens away
by some I hardly know
Thank you for the flowers
you give to me each day
each petal is worth more
than words can ever say

May you all have a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year and let's all pray for a better one as many folks like myself have had a rough 2018. Just like last year I probably will not be up to open the door and let the old year out and the new year in and my husband has tried his best to get all the laundry done and the floors swept or we'll sweep and wash all of our treasures away. lol My mom firmly believed in this and worked very hard on New year's Eve to get it all done so she wouldn't have to on New year's Day. I asked her one time about why she never worried about cooking and washing dishes. She said, " it doesn't matter cause I do that every day of the year anyways". lol Couldn't figure that one out. May God Continue to bless each one of you and I'm still praying for many blogging friends and their family members on here. Blessings, Susie
