Happy Mother's Day, Mama

Mom & me ~ circa 1951 ~ she was 19 years old
************
If flowers grow in Heaven, Lord
Then pick a bunch for me
Place them in my Mama's arms
And tell her they're from me

Tell her that I love and miss her
And when she turns to smile
Place a kiss upon her cheek
And hold her for a while
