Don't stand around a coffin
And cry sad unending tears for me.
Send me off with a joyful laugh
And watch me float away
In a cool spring morning breeze.
Don't bury me beneath the earth
Where the cold darkness will eat away at my body until
I am just a bag of bones.
Toss me into the wind
So that I can fly with the birds
And float with the clouds toward home.
Spread my ashes across a golden valley of sunshine.
Where the green trees yearn to touch the blue sky.
Where purple flowers whisper in the warm breeze.
Toss me in the wind and let me fly.
Let me lay on carpet of wildflowers
In a quiet evening meadow.
Let me listen to the cricket's chirp
And listen to the flowers grow.
Dance with joy in the morning light
As you toss me in the wind.
Sing songs of jubilation
as you watch as I take flight.
Shed tears of happiness in the golden sunset
If you must cry for me.
Share stories of my life well lived
As I float away on the breeze.
Live your life with gladness
Don't dwell on all the sadness.
Think of me with a delightful smile.
Remember....
We'll be together in a little while.
