When I Die

When my time has come for my final walk in life
And, my earthly mark was left right in place
I want to grace the world like the seasons do
And, fall with the leaves with eternal grace...

I want roses to gather in pairs in the fields
And, dance with the winds with it's blow to freedom
Watch them open their eyes in a sense of the past
Praying my family and friends are there to see them...

I want whispers to crowd a room of what I left behind
For the angels to sing louder then before
Have them tune their stand in my name here the same
And, my disappearance to be found behind natures door...

When I die I want to be the warmth of the sun
That focus on bare lying stones
Allow my sun to be my heart to touch them
To all I ever really wanted to own...

When I die I want the ones who plagued me the most
Find me when the rain comes pouring down
To find me in the waters knee deep in gone
To see a part of me still remains around...

I want the waters to rise from the seas of grief
To the heavens and shake my hand to meet
For the grasses to stand shade all new to the eyes
To find I'm part of their growing on the rise...

When I die I want hills to bow to what's below
To provide a dance to the rhythm of life's awesome show
For they can lean on any day seen
Oh, what it would do for me...

For birds to chatter in a message of my gone
To let them carry their tune in my honor along
For the snow to fall brighter and whiter to ground
And, for everyone to capture my heart in those icicles found...

When I die I hope to be the center of divine
A place I can call all mine
Perhaps I'll die in the arms of day never making it to night
But, you can bet I'll ride it there with all my might...

When I die I'll not be away for I'll always be found
In the air, in the breeze, and along the ground
So, don't cry for what has set me ever free
Cause, in your world you'll always find me...

There is always a place for poets in the world.  Forever.

Thank you.
