Thanks for the post, Ann. In some ways, viewing that cemetary, with the flowers growing between the rows of graves, reminds me of the poem "In Flanders Fields". Nearby to my home in Tacoma, Washington, is a mental hospital with a similar cemetary. I remember as a boy, attending a funeral there, and the cold feeling it left me with.

The tiny flowers do add charm to the Graveyard.
