The Gift Of Your Love

entry picture

You could send her flowers
You could send her something sweet
You could send her a card
You could send her a special treat

You could send her anything
You could send her all the above
The best gift to send your Mother
is the gift of your love

version 2

You could send her some flowers
You could send her something sweet
You could send her a card
You could send her a special treat

You could send her anything
You could send her all the above
The best gift to send this Mother's Day
is the gift of your love

Version 3

I could have sent you some flowers
I could have sent you something sweet
I could have sent you a card
I could have sent you a special treat
I could have sent you anything
I could have sent you all the above
But I didn't have any money
So I am just sending all my love

Thanks for the likes Hugh and Nazia and Stephen G.

Sending a virtual hug to you Hugh.

Thanks your lovely version Stephen G.
Inspired by Keiths comment about appropriate for a Mothers Day card, version 3 Is meant to be a "silly card" option.

Beautiful poems. Version 3 is a little bit sad but still uplifting.

How about?

I could have sent you some flowers
I could have sent you something sweet
I could have sent you a card
I could have sent you a special treat
I could have sent you anything
I could have sent you all the above
But I prefer the greatest gift -
I am sending you all my love

On mother's day

To send my mum a card would be a difficult task.
Please Oh Lord a favour I do ask.
As peacefully she lies in heaven above,
Please send her all my love.?

Thanks for the likes Aviva, A girl and Keith. Thanks also for the lovely comments. I have added a couple of versions inspired by your thoughts it could be written in a card, thank you Keith.

Julie,
This would be appropriate for the inside of a Mother's Day card. Well said
Thanks
Keith
