Bouquets of Love

The beauty of fresh cut flowers
Brightens our day and lifts us up.
Their fragrance brings such delight,
Our soul must surely be touched.

The love that goes into each bouquet
Lifts our spirits to soaring heights,
Just knowing that someone cares
By bringing us a bouquet of love.

We need to be thoughtful too,
Offering bouquets of love to Our Lady,
Who gave us her only son,
Who is the Redeemer of mankind.

We need bouquets of love
To fill our churches on special Feasts,
To help lift our minds and hearts
To the heavenly realm!
