The Flower GardenA Poem by KATHY SUE SILLSA husband shows his love with flowers!
You never promised me a flower garden, but that's what you gave me for each year on my birthday you planted a different flower in our back yard in honor of me!
As each spring approached our backyard became a rainbow of colors everywhere there were roses vibrant in all shades of color petunias, marygolds, mums, tulips, and many more that added beauty in their own way!
I miss the times we shared in the garden, watching the sun rise in the morning and set in the late afternoon, listening to the birds, crickets and frogs playing their nature sound in a musical way that was so romantic!
Each day when I look out the window or walk through that magnificent garden my heart mourns for you! I miss you each and every day I wish I could turn back time and have you with me once again
The day you died, I died inside on the anniversary of your death I take a flower from my garden and plant it around your grave in memory of my one and only love I can almost hear you say, "you never promised me a flower garden!
