~ Mother's Day Rose ~

Here I am so very far Momma
Too far to bake a cake,
No matter how delicious
For you I'd like to make.

Too far to have a visit
And take you out to tea,
To sit together in a cafe
And share a special treat.

~*~

Too far to bring a present
And watch while you unwrap,
A gift that I could choose
Your room to nicely match.

Yes, too far for that delight
But, for you I found a pretty rose,
Representing how I feel
Just to let you always know.

~*~

I've been musing on your day
And dreaming up a gift,
Something that will touch your heart
Something special I can give.

My heart is with you Mother dear
With tender thoughts of love,
My prayer for you is somehow now
You will feel my gentle hug.

~*~

God Bless you today and always Mom
Happy Mother's Day
