Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Throw Me Around My Garden Please

I do not want a mausoleum
I do not want a tomb
I do not want a coffin
Or a viewing room
I want to be incinerated
and thrown around my garden
like pixie dust

and it someone else lives here
I do not care
sneak in at night
throw me among my marigolds, lilacs, and lavender

I do not want a tombstone
I do not want a cross
I want to be among my faeries, my brownies, and my elves.
They would be so sad
if anything else were to happen
and so would I.

Debbie Duncan June 19, 2019 at 6:59 PM Love it, I want to be thrown in a flower garden as well An English flower garden or over the poppies on the ocean cliff :)

Sand Blown June 18, 2019 at 3:51 PM perfectly understandable...my wish is that after cremation the ashes be put in a jar (with a metal lid that will rust away) and thrown into the 110 ft deep fishing hole that is my favorite ........ or bury the ashes under one of my favorite trees
