The daffodils were late that year. She ran out while supper was cooking and picked a few of the fashionably late blooms. Tucked into the pitcher there on the tray they seemed a cheerful sentiment.
Every year daffodil bouquets blaze the trail for the many she gathers....
Much like a mother in affection of her first born, she never wishes any away... Each bloom and bouquet precious, like a child's life; changing, fleeting and pressed immeasurably against those creases in her heart.
A Beautiful and Blessed Mother's Day to You...a rather short post this year, but click on the following links to read previous ponderings..

ReplyDeleteSometimes short and simple posts are the best. :) The daffodil is a cheerful flower. I hope you had a very nice Mother's Day, Lucy.
