   He went into the small shopand saw a young boy talking to the clerk. “How many roses can I get for sixdollars, ma’am?” The boy asked. The clerk was trying to explain that roses wereexpensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with carnations.

The clerk looked up at John and was justshaking her head. Something inside of John was touched by the boy’s voice. Hewanted to get those roses so bad. John had been blessed in his business, and helooked at the clerk and silently mouthed that he would pay for the boy’s roses.

Suddenly, he realized it wasn't apark. It was a cemetery(墓地). He saw the young man stop by a small monument and go to hisknees. He carefully laid the roses on the grave and began to cry.

As he cried, John heard the young manspeak, “Mommy, oh Mommy, why didn’t I tell you how much I love you. Why didn’tI tell you one more time? Jesus, please, find my Mommy. Tell my Mommy I loveher."
