Who Will Tend Her Roses
© 2020 Cindy Prince

She is getting up in years now
Doesn't want to die alone
Loves her garden and roses
Loves her cottage home

She can still manage fairly well
If she doesn't hurry round
She worries what will happen
After she is heaven bound

Chorus
Who would tend her roses
Would they just dry up and die
Would anyone even notice
When they'd drive by
Who would water them carefully
Who would whisper to them
Who would treat each one personally
Time and time again
Who would tend her roses...roses

Bridge
Her roses have kept her going
Since her husband passed away
They are her pride and joy
And she talks to them every day

She tries not to think about it
No use worrying every day
Maybe someone will someday
Put roses on her grave
Repeat chorus
