Three sunflowers gifted to me
'Tis the beauty of bloom I do see
Centers of seed and abundance true
God's glory in wondrous full view
Humble and proud they grow and stand
These the gifts of the Creator's hand.

Hi RoseMarie-
I hope you get a moment to visit my blog. I haven't been commenting too much if at all on anyone's blog as of late. My last 2 posts explain why. But when I saw the three sunflowers I was drawn to visit here and tell you that I give my sister three sunflowers every Mother's day in honor of her three sons - her oldest son, Clayton died 7 years ago and sunflowers are his favorite flower -
love Gail
peace....
Gail, You have been missed. Spirit is ever present and our hearts be known to one another. I will now visit. I too, in the midst of an interlude.
Blessings to you and yours.
Lovingly,
Rose Marie
I love this series of sunflowers by Van Gogh and your words celebrate their beauty aptly :)
