I write when I cannot sleep and wrote this poem thinking of a friend who once sent me flowers for no reason. Although I knew she sent them, I was thinking what would have happened if I had not known.
I hope you enjoy these thoughts and remember those you love. And remember: "Don't be sad that roses have thorns; be happy that thorns have roses."
Someone sent me flowers today
No card, no note, no name, no way
For me to tell who thought so much
Of me to brighten up my day.
I thought of all the folks I know
I listed the names all in a row
So I could figure out who to thank
For giving me this smile, this glow
And as I thought of each on the list
The ones close by, the ones I missed
I began to understand my luck
To have so many folks I've kissed
I still don't know who took the time
To include the little note and rhyme
Placed inside the beautiful buds and
Sent to me at the most perfect time
For you see my day was really bad
I woke up late, I was feeling sad
Just one of those days we often have
That cause us to really miss being glad
So should you ever want to lend
A helping hand to a loving friend
Send her flowers without a note
And all day long she will dote
On spending time thinking of all the love
Family and friends sent from God above
Who hold her tightly in their hearts
As close as a hand wrapped in a warm glove
So whoever you are out there today
Who sent such wonderful wishes my way
I do not need to know your name
I have your love each and every day
Thank you from the bottom of my heart
For letting me be such an important part
Of your life that you knew without a call
How much I needed the time apart
To think of all who love me, all who care
Ones I deeply love, ones with whom I share
My hopes, my dreams and even a bad day
Thank you my friend for being there
I hope you enjoy these thoughts and remember those you love. And remember: "Don't be sad that roses have thorns; be happy that thorns have roses."
