池塘涟漪

章节摘录

　　If she was well enough， she always went with us every year on this important outing. I sat in the front seat of the car， in the middle， between Daddy and my brother. Mama sat in the back beside Grandma and down the road we went because it was Decoration Day and the day our whole family went to the cemeteries.　　The first stop was Linville Cemetery， a beautiful place with huge old oak trees with branches that seemed to protect the inhabitants of the cemetery with their wide boughs~. We had relatives buried at Linville and we all got out of the car and walked the short distance to grave sites.　　Everyone was quieter and Mama reminded us to be respectful because we were to honor the final resting places of those buried in the cemetery. Mama placed some of the flowers on the graves and she and Daddy spoke about some of the relatives and told us children a little about each one.　　There were many small American flags at grave sites across the cemetery. Daddy and Mama talked about how those flags were placed there by veteran organizations to honor the soldiers who had served our country， many of them giving their lives to keep our country free.
