    ~ One Small Rose ~ I would rather have one small rose From the garden of a friend Than to have the choicest flowers When my stay on earth must end.  I would rather have one pleasant word In kindness said to me Than flattery when my heart is still And life has ceased to be. I would rather have a loving smile From friends I know are true Than tears shed round my casket When this world I've bid adieu. Bring me all your flowers today~ Whether pink, or white, or red; I'd rather have one blossom now Than a truckload when I'm dead. ~Author unknown~ Press the picture to  Send to a friend    If you would like to be on my MAILING LIST CLICK HERE Midi: "My Heart Sings" by Bruce DeBoer Copyright © 2000, Used with his permission Visit his website at: http://www.brucedeboer.net |
