Nana and the flower arranger

Nana and the flower arranger
At Luke’s Nana’s funeral Luke's older sister Emma, put beautiful white peas on the coffin.Luke mum put her nice looking seashells from the beach and put it on the coffin.His grandad put along some soft spoonbill feathers.Then he stepped back,took a spade and softly dropped a spadeful of soil and suddenly put the spade down on the ground.He didn’t do anything but stared at his Nana’s coffin and said goodbye for the last time.

Luke and his family walked out of the  graveyard and kept on staring at his Nana’s grave. His grandad said “Nana will be happy there”.
Then Luke and his family walked out of the graveyard.  He walked behind everyone else. He didn’t think that his Nana will be very happy in her coffin. Luke didn’t say a word and just left staring at her grave.

In Nana and Grandpa's house,  thousands of people were eating and drinking and telling other relatives stories about Nana.Luke went out to the frontyard to think of a story about Nana but he didn’t have any  story to tell about his Nanna.  He was confused.  His mum gave Luke a chocolate biscuit and he  took a bite.  He said yuck!.  Luke’s tears and the chocolate mixed and tasted yuck. He stayed outside playing and singing.His tried to call his Nana’s silly magpie but it didn’t want to be bother. His dad called him to come in.”I don’t want to”He said.”Why don’t you want to come in”His dad replied.”I don’t have a story to tell about Nana’s long life”.He kicked a stone.”Does it matter”His dad said.”Yes it does”Luke said.After that his mum came and told  his dad to leave him alone.
