This is my first mothers day without my mom. I always gave her flowers and roses were her favorite. I wanted to do something for mama so i wrote this poem for her. If this is your first mothers day without your mother i hope this poem will bring you comfort.

Roses For Mama

©  Lynn Casstevens
Lord, are there roses in your garden
On the shores of jubilee
Would you pick a dozen of your best
And deliver them for me?
For you see, today is mothers’ day
And I can’t visit my mom
For it wasn’t very long ago
The angels came and took her home.
So if there are roses in your garden
On the shores of Jubilee
Would you pick a dozen of your best
And deliver them for me?
Would you take them to my mother
And tell her that I love her.
Tell her that I miss her
In oh! So many ways
But I have joy in knowing
We’ll meet again someday
And we’ll pick roses together
On the shores of Jubilee.

Your poem touched me deeply. My mom just passed away and it has been hard to do things at times. At times I think I hear her calling me, but it is my heart that is crying. Mama loved roses and so on her grave I will be placing her favorite red and white roses. I know as she looks down she will smile and I will send her a kiss to heaven. Thanks for the poem

I lost my mother in September and miss her so much. I know that Mothers Day will be a hard day for me this year. Thank you for the beautiful poem. It really touched me. God Bless
