Bet: Do you know Gordon Bok's "Turning Toward the Morning?" It has this verse:
It's a pity we don't know What the little flowers know. They can't face the cold November; They can't take the wind and snow. They put their glories all behind them, Bow their heads and let it go; But you know they'll be there, Shining, in the morning.
Seems to me your Mom knew that, too.
