I saw the blooming flowers today
As I moved along on my way
From here to there, another somewhere;
A daffodil from a bulb of another year
Which I had carefully transplanted here,
From Mom’s garden that had to end
Since she was moving to assisted living
And had a gift for always giving
“You take the plant, since I can’t,
Daffodils aren’t very hard
And you do at least have a yard”
So I took it home where I live alone,
And yes it still comes to bloom
As Mom again lightens my gloom
