I Ask My Mother to Sing
By Li-Young Lee

She begins, and my grandmother joins her.
Mother and daughter sing like young girls.
If my father were alive, he would play
his accordion and sway like a boat.

I've never been in Peking, or the Summer Palace,
nor stood on the great Stone Boat to watch
the rain begin on Kuen Ming Lake, the picnickers
running away in the grass.

But love th her it sung;how the waterlilies fill with rain until they overturn, spilling water in to water then rock back and fill with more.

Both women have begun to cry But neither stops her song.

The women in the poem are singing about.

A:their host country
B:their family life
C:their family memories
D:their native country
