It was Mother's Day and Robert Allman tried to prepare for the occasion. Tradition held that when worshippers attended church on Mother's Day, those whose mothers were alive wore red roses. Those whose mothers were passed, like Robert's, would wear a white rose. However, after he could only find a red rose to wear, he never dreamed, not in a million years, what was in store for him.

When Robert Allman couldn't find a white rose for Mother's Day to symbolize his beloved mother's death, he choose a red rose instead. With that choice he's given an opportunity to revisit his past.

This was a sweet short story that I found really thought provoking. If you had one last moment with someone, what would you say? What would you take from that encounter? With just a few words, we get a strong sense of Robert's life and his relationship with his family. I loved that it was open to interpretation, and I'd love to read more from this author.

I requested a copy of the audiobook, and I'm voluntarily leaving a review.

A Rose for His Mother

A rose 🌹 that represents a son's love and respect for his mother. Told with few words, it's still a reminder that our family is always alive in our hearts and memories. It's nice when such a short story can make you stop and think about the sentimental things. I voluntarily requested a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Really Sweet..

in such a short story. John I. Jones has mastered the ability to deliver a deep and thought provoking story with a minimal amount of words to develop both the characters and plot in a fulfilling tale. A story of a family's love, loss, devotion, and hope all rolled into a 13-minute listen. The magic of it is that one can take away so many different perspectives depending upon which of the 4 main characters eyes you view it from.

The story is well worth the price and I would highly recommend listening to it; more than once! My only issue is was with the narration. It could be just my own personal ear, but I didn't think the voice of the narrator fit the parts quite right; at least not as well as the narrators of the author's other works I have listened. The other thing I noticed is that there were a couple of spots where a short sentence was repeated and I do not believe it was due to the text. Seems to me a sound editor (proof listener?) should have caught these. Not a big deal, but I did find it interrupted the flow of the story for me.

Bottom line? Worth every minute of the listen. A review copy of this audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in return for this unbiased review. My hope is that this review helps in your decision to obtain this book.

A family goes to church by mother’s day but they stop in their way to buy a rose for each one. A red rose means their mother is still alive, while a white one means she has passed away. A red rose instead a white one brings a wonderful surprise.

This is a beautiful tale about love and homesickness. The characters are not fully developed but the way they are pictured works well for the story. I think a longer and more elaborate book would have better served the plot, since like it is right now it seems just a draft.

Eva R. Marienchild delivered a very good narration, expressing the right amount of emotion at every time and with a different voice for each character. It helped to bring the characters to life and improve the story.

I received a copy of this book in audio format from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Beautiful story but not the best format

Here is a nice short story for Mother's Day. I didn't almost cry like I did for his short story Trapping Rabbits, but this is still a quick enjoyable listen with an excellent narrator.

This is a very sweet short story dealing with the grief of loosing a parent. It's powerfully emotive and enjoyable to listen to.

The narration is a good match for the story and helps to convey the emotion of the story.

Sweet and emotional

An auspicious rose color signals something greater.

This short story was a bit sentimental for my tastes. Of the 3 stories I've read by this author, this was my least favorite. The mood and setting are still as good as ever. More southern town life that he thrives at depicting with sparing but believable details.

The narration was incredibly hit and miss. Mostly I didn't care for it but in rare instances it was pitch perfect.

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Such a heartwarming story of Mother's Day. I lost my mother twenty years ago and it was like talking to her again. The narrator did a great job in telling the story. I could have listened for hours. I was given a copy for an honest review.
