A Bouquet of Love--By Celine Rose Mariotti--Unted States

A Bouquet of Love
        (To Mom)

The way you smile at me,
Giving me advice
When I need it,
Helping me with little
Everyday problems
That’s a bouquet of love,

The times when we have a cup of tea
And a cherry turnover,
And watch “Young and the Restless”
And discuss the story
That’s a bouquet of love,

When you watch the Giants with me
And we discuss football,
When you bake a cake,
And when you edit one of my stories,
That’s a bouquet of love,

All you do,
All you give,
All wrapped up in one big hug,
And a big bouquet of your endless love.
