Rose Gardens for My Heart


"Living in a world
full of smiles
is a pleasure
everyone should treasure."

You have to appreciate
all the smiles
she put on her face
taking the time to smile
is a treasure
that sadness can't erase.

"I beg your pardon
I never promised you
a rose garden,
along with the sunshine
you need to have
a little rain sometime."
Lynn Anderson

Yet everytime she smiled
she created a rose garden
for my heart.

Very beautiful, James, wrapped around part of Lynn Anderson's lovely song.
