I SEND YOU THESE THINGS

I  S E N D  Y O U  T H E S E  T H I N G S

I send you happiness, your day to start
I send you roses, straight from my heart
I send you the best songs anyone can sing
The memory of Nature’s songs in early spring
I send the warmth of a sunny day
The sweetness of the air after the rain’s gone away
I send the beauty of the prettiest flowers
The contentment of seeing Nature’s powers
I send you the wonder of an innocent child
That unquestioning faith when everything is wild
But most of all, because you’re my Mother
I send you the love I have for no other
Love,
Amanda Joy
