Sympathy Flowers for Marvel



My sister-in-law's mother passed away last week, and she called and asked me if I 
thought I could arrange some flowers coming out of a pair of her mother's shoes.
I have never done anything like this, so was a bit nervous,
but I thought they turned out pretty.  In fact, as I filled these shoes 
with flowers, an idea for a poem came to mind.
I started writing it last night.  Maybe I'll get it finished and post it.

My parents also asked me to arrange some flowers as a gift from us.
I love the pink "Ballet" roses.  They're bright and cheery,
and one of my favorite pink roses.
I hope the family feels of our love for them!
Marvel was a wonderful lady.
