A small bouquet of flowers…

It is better to send your friend a small note right now, telling them how much they mean to you, even if you feel like it is insufficient or silly timing; rather than to wait too long, and you have all of these beautiful memories and poetic sentiments to share, but they are not here to hear it.

You should tell and show people how you feel now, in the moment, when you can, rather than waiting for the perfect moment, because then it may be too late.
