Our Beautiful Flower Garden

Our beautiful flower garden was created in memory of our loved one's lost to suicide. If you would like to submit an entry to our flower garden click on the webmaster link at the bottom of the page and decide what kind of flower you would like (we will locate a graphic for you unless you have one that you would like to send). Send your flower choice - kind or type of flower and color you would like to place in the garden, name of your loved one, their dates, your name and relationship to your loved one, and where your loved one lived. We will add your submission at our first available moment. You need not be a member of our organization or any of our affiliates to send a submission.

Thank you for visiting and we hope your visit is as beautiful as the flowers in our garden.

I tend my flowers for thee --
Bright Absentee!
My Fuchsia's Coral Seams
Rip -- while the Sower -- dreams --

Geraniums -- tint -- and spot --
Low Daisies -- dot --
My Cactus -- splits her Beard
To show her throat --

Carnations -- tip their spice --
And Bees -- pick up --
A Hyacinth -- I hid --
Puts out a Ruffled Head --
And odors fall
From flasks -- so small --
You marvel how they held --

Globe Roses -- break their satin glake --
Upon my Garden floor --
Yet -- thou -- not there --
I had as lief they bore
No Crimson -- more --

Thy flower -- be gay --
Her Lord -- away!
It will becometh me --
I'll dwell in Calyx -- Gray --
How modestly -- always --
Thy Daisy --
Draped for thee!

Flowers are the spirits of children whose footsteps have passed from the earth, but reappear each year to gladden the pathway of those now living.

God awakened us, and here we are to comfort you.
