GOD'S BOUQUET

Endless fields of vibrant blossoms,
colors more radiant and
diverse than the rainbow,
sky constantly changing hues
from turquoise, to silver, to gold and back again,
little angel whose life went to sleep
way too young
picks her favorites from its shimmering petals.
Sending them into the air,
where their scent floats on a heaven's breeze,
reaches mother's nose,
which lingers in haunting flowery scent.

Petals settle upon astral path,
waiting for mother to sleep
when she'll follow them to meet her child
for a picnic of hugs lasting forever
and will make every moment,
feel as Mother's Day.
