Ashes To Springtime

when life has reached that great crossroad between death and merely dying when the next step is just not worth it and you are really tired of trying there is only one answer for this final end of station the real life ashes to ashes found only in cremation. it is a simple process that returns you to your roots. it offers not exoneration but only simple truth. so when your life is ending and you realize you are toast put it in your will today to return in next springs compost.

That's funny. Though, I recall my mother being tired. Tired of pain, tired of the small disappointments taken from her for being old. Knowing it wasn't goong to get better but end one day. She wanted her relief and was given it one cold winter night. Thank you for this.
