One Final Gift
Scatter me not to restless winds,
Nor toss my ashes to the sea.
Remember now the years gone by . . .
When loving gifts I gave to thee.
Remember now the happy times . . .
The family ties we shared.
Don’t leave my resting place unmarked
As though you never cared.
Deny me not one final gift for all who come to see . . .
A single lasting proof that says
I loved . . . and you loved me
