Give Them The Flowers Now

Closed eyes can not see the white pink or red roses,
Cold hands can't hold them, you know,
Breath that is stilled
Can not gather the odors
That sweet from them blow.

Death with a peace beyond dreaming
Each child on earth doth endow;
Now is the time to give them
Give them the flowers now.

There are the struggles and strivings,
There are the cares and the tears,
Now, (while we are still alive!) is the time to smooth the
furrows, the frowns and the fears;
What to closed ears are kind sayings,
What to hushed heart is deep vow.
Naught can avail after parting
So, Give them the flowers now.
