One of the most moving sights I have seen in a graveyard. Why are they actually called grave'yards' when they are usually lush and green. The word 'yard' gives the impression of a place that is hard and somehow insignificant. A grave'garden' would be more fitting. Aside from this thought, my heart melted seeing this gravestone at St Peter's, Heysham. The flowers are forget-me-nots. I've never seen this before and after researching, discovered that in Europe it is common to seed forget-me-nots on grave sites. I'm definitely wanting this for mine someday in the hopefully, distant future
