Hi you all,

Here is a story song, The Old Mans Flowers. An old song I wrote with just a guitar vocal.

Thanks for listening,

Letha

The Old Mans Flowers

From a chair beside the road
The old man would wave
In his garden he would hoe
His flowers everyday
And everyday I’d wave
My heart would fill with peace
To see the beautiful flowers
He grew for all to see

Well his hands were old and worn
But he never failed a smile
Till the day his chair was gone
His flowers stood alone
And oh my heart was sad
A tear came to my eye
I said, who will tend his flowers
They will surely die

Chorus
Beautiful flowers
From a tiny seed
Planted with love
So beautiful to see

Now the old
man is gone
But his flowers will live on
His children take his place
You see his flowers never fade

Tho the old man,
He is gone
His flowers still live on
Children take his place
see his flowers never fade

No the old mans flowers never fade…
