This one thing I know When I shuffle off this mortal coil. Bury me not in a six foot hole in s park of six foot holes Headstones set in rows of rows. Marked with year, start and end. Do not do this to me my friends I ask you to bury me among the roots of a large tree with branches spread wide that embrace the sky. A tree that children can clamber and climb and see forever away, one that is a castle in their imaginary play. Find a tree with space below so that friends can cone sit, stare into those branches so leafy and green and find solace in what might have been. Or simply read a good book in the tree's shade. Let there be picnic and lovers trysts and in years ppl to come let there be benches for those that come to sit in peace for short moments in time. Let my death have more purpose, than mere memory of my time alive on earth
let it be a place with no marker of how long I was me, but be more my soul's transference into eternity. Let me nourish the world in ways anew. Under a tree with an amazing view.
