My Memory Bouquet

By: Gloria Dianne

When someone touches my heart
In any special way,
I call these gestures flowers,
And add them to my memory bouquet.

A flower can be anything,
A kind thought, a word, a deed.
And oh, such beauty blossoms,
From just one little seed!

Give me my flowers
While I can see
The love in your eyes
As you give them to me.

Speak words of kindness
While I can hear.
Let loved ones gather 'round me,
While I am still here.

If I have touched your life,
In any special way,
Please don't wait until I'm gone,
Give me my flowers today!
