The feel of the smoldering, hot sun; beating, beating down on my skin. So warm that it turns my flesh a rosy-pink that stings like an open-wound with salt poured into it. In the distance there are cries of laughter and the munchkin-like voice of a child. I can’t decide if they add joy to this wondrous day or simply ruin the peaceful, innocent beauty of it. A view of once dead trees is now starting to erupt with color. I hear two birds quarrelling in the branches. And then the obnoxious beeping that just ruined my train of thought.

The Outdoors
When I died the sun broke through the clouds, casting a beautiful ray of light upon everything. And the bird's throats quivered with a beautiful song. It was a beautiful fusion of all of my beloved classical pieces. The pianists’ fingers gracefully touched each and every key with a stroke of love and sorrow. When the last piece ended the bench was pushed in and the top was closed softly for the last time. With a gentle kiss, both my body and my piano were laid to rest in peace.

When I Died
On a dirt road in the country side, Nothing but hills surrounded me. Hills that blossomed in the spring with beautiful shades of green. Neighbors were a field away. It was travelled by few but many at the same time. A road for night-time walks and hearing the crickets evening song, the frogs croak, and the whisper of the wind rustling through the fields, making that peacful night-time walk eerie. A road to learn how to ride a bike on and then, a few years later, how to drive a car. Travelled by big tractors, an occasional car, And every now and then, the hooves of escaping cows.
