Mama fixed chicken salad sandwiches,
Which I know wasn't one of your favorite things.
But guess what we put on them?
Home grown tomatoes which you planted before you had wings.
What a marvelous gift to see,
The sweet fruits of your labor right before our eyes.
You planted so many beautiful things on earth,
Before we said goodbye.
You planted hundreds of seeds,
And tended your garden with care.
Planting seeds of love and acceptance,
Growing hope for those in despair.
Our tears will provide the water,
Our memories of you will be like the sun.
We will take care of your garden,
Sharing your hope with everyone.
