Nana and the flowere arranger





When Nana had her funeral Emma the sister put the most perfect white sweet pea from Nana’s garden.  

Mum added a precious shell from the beach and Grandad put a fluffy spoonbill feathers on the coffin,Nana always kept on her dressing table. After that someone gave Grandad a spade so he could put Nana’s coffin into the ground. Brother Luke didn’t do anything but just stood there next to dad looking at the bush over the fence. Then Luke heard something. Listen said Luke, A bell bird. Shh said dad. Grandad said to Luke,nan would be happy here.

Then they all walked out the graveyard behind everyone else. When we got to nana and Grandad’s house lots of people were eating and drinking and also telling stories about Nana’s  long life. Later that day, when most people were gone Grandad,dad,mum and Emma went back to the graveyard. When they got there they saw high pile of flowers. Then Luke put a flower down and Emma said angrily thats a weed and then dad said leave him alone. The next day Granddad said that he would want to go to the graveyard again, and so they went. At the entrance they saw fantails flittering around Granddad ‘s feet. Hurry up Luke’s mum said. he ran on and then he was shocked. he saw that all the flowers were scrunched and papers were ripped. Then Luke put his face into granddad ‘s jacket. Then they were all smiling. Then luke was wondering why they all were smiling. Then they all saw a weka trying to take the golden ribbon.

I love the story nana and they flower arranger because it is very interesting and I hope other people will like it to.
