Just Because



Flowers can be given
as gift to the one you love.
Flowers can make heart strings soar;
like wings on a dove.  

Flowers bring the beauty in,
and spread the joy around.
Flowers, they can pick you up,
when you’re feeling down.  

Flowers can be sent to mask
a person’s many flaws;
But the best gift ever given;
is flowers “just because”.
