A gift

A man was riding a bus in the South. It was a hot summer day and the old man was sitting with a bouquet of flowers on his lap. A little girl was sitting just across the aisle. She kept looking at the fresh flowers. He could tell that she enjoyed them. Just then the bus stopped and He impulsively put the bouquet of flowers in her lap as he got up and left the bus. He turned and said to her, "Here, you take these flowers, I was going to give them to my wife, but I think she would want you to have them. I'll tell her that I gave them to you. " Then the old man slowly got off the bus, walked across the street and through a small gate to a cemetery.
