If Roses Grow in Heaven
ByDolores M. Garcia
If roses grow in heaven, Lord please pick a bunch for me, Place them in my Mothers arms and tell her theyre from me.
Tell her I love her and miss her, and when she turns to smile, place a kiss upon her cheek and hold her for awhile.
Because remembering her is easy, I do it every day, but theres an ache within my heart that will never go away.
