God’s Bouquet

My Mother

My Lord came into His garden
To pick Himself a bouquet.
The loveliest flowers He has planted
To beautify Heaven some day,

He comes to the bud of a rose;
A babe in arms you might say,
He pauses beside a gladiola;
A youth vibrant and gay.

It is not known for fragrance but beauty,
Its blossoms not yet fully revealed.
But my Lord sometimes chooses this flower,
His wisdom perfect, though sometimes concealed,

Now He lingers to admire the chrysanthemum,
A flower of rare perfume.
A flower that has born the heat of summer,
Delicate in color, full in bloom,

Yes, the memory of Mother will linger
Sweet as perfume rare.
Her loving deeds, her smile of courage,
Blended coloring delicate everywhere.

So — when God gave us this “lovely flower”
Life was made full and complete.
I know that when He chose Mother,
It made heaven, too, more sweet. 

May E. Bolig

(This poem was written by Mary Moyer’s mother, Mary E. Bolig, on the occasion of Mary’s Grandmother’s passing.)
