Last Wishes

When I perish from this earth Here is my last request Do not stick me in a box For all eternities rest I want to float on oceans I want to travel the distant sea Cremate me very quickly then And let my body be My ashes shall travel further Than my body ever did Don’t put me in the ground For my body to become a sieve Don’t let worms eat me Or developers remove me Let my final resting place Be settled by the ocean’s pace Free of the earth’s restraints My remains can nourish wide Fishes, whales and dolphins Can give my ashes a ride From the sea we came And to the sea we return Let me finish life’s circle Without a body interned
