Valentine Flowers

An old man got on a bus one February 14th, carrying a dozen roses. He
sat beside a young man. The young man looked at the roses and
said, "Somebody's going to get a beautiful Valentine's Day
gift." "Yes," said the old man.

A few minutes went by and the old man noticed that his young
companion was staring at the roses. "Do you have a girlfriend?" the
old man asked.

"I do," said the young man. "I'm going to see her right now, and I'm
going to give her this Valentine's Day card."

They rode in silence for another 10 minutes, and then the old man got
up to get off the bus. As he stepped out into the aisle, he suddenly
placed the roses on the young man's lap and said, "I think my wife
would want you to have these. I'll tell her that I gave them to you."

He left the bus quickly. As the bus pulled away, the young man turned
to see the old man enter the gates of a cemetery.
