Bury Me

Bury Me Bury me by the Ocean Bury me out at Sea Bury me in a beauty spot Where the sun always shines on me Bury me deep in Bluebell Wood Bury me in fields of Clover Bury me in sacred ground With a rainbow arching over But please; Don’t bury me upside down Or bury me upon my head Don’t bury me with my socks left on and please make sure I’m dead Written 27th July 2018 Entered for July contest sponsored by Broken Wings

But on the day, inevitably, that you have to bury me ~ Make sure that this delightful poem makes its way into the ground with me!! Nice write, Kevin! Best always, Gershon

I was going along, kind of sailing softly, like in a boat when the last verse grabbed me by the ankles and dashed me against the side, bam, bam, bam! I loved that!
