A SIMPLE BOUQUET
by © Chris
I stopped at the store to buy you a bouquet
What I found is that it had a whole lot to say
The flowers each stood for a part of our life
And they were meant for you, my beautiful wife
The yellow one stands for a little girl we both know
She's pretty and sweet and always ready to go
She sings little girl songs and has beautiful dark hair
God gave us an angel for our hearts to share
The white rose represents the little boy in our home
There are days that I know he won't leave you alone
He's happy and smart and full of such joy
We're lucky to be blessed with such a sweet boy
The red one's a sign of the love that WE share
Over time we have proven just how much we care
We love in the ways that makes others just wish
And hope for each other with a smile and a kiss
That ribbon that holds the bouquet in a bunch
I didn't get it at first, yet it means so much
It stands for your love in our home every day
As the center of our family in every way
This bouquet in the store, I'll just have to get
The best part of this is it isn't done yet
There are more flowers to add, more times to have fun
More nights full of laughter, and more days full of sun
So the next time I bring flowers, I hope that you know
Your love means much more to me than I could ever show
