When the time does come, for you and me Let our ashes be mixed in harmony Take us up to the highest hill When springtime winds, blow with eerie shrill Open the box, where we do lie Send our remains to the very sky Through hill and valley, over water soar Still, mixed together, we beat death’s door In life we lived, in death we stay Till time does come, in Judgment day No one knows what we did face In life’s long battle to win the race The times were hard, the times were good But in each other, we understood We knew no fear of yawning death’s door For in the winds, we would eventually soar |

Strummer, everything about this speaks of and to eternity in its truest sense. I like this on several planes. Please, check your email for a Very Special Welcome to PiP Greeting! "The business of the poet...is to show the sorriness underlying the grandest things and the grandeur underlying the sorriest things." Thomas Hardy |
