Please lay me down in the fescue and clover
Where the fragrance of newly mown hay fills the breeze
I will watch the day die as the last rays are glowing
As golden red shafts swim in blue aqua streams
The heavens will tend me as the dew settles gently
And starry magicians will sprinkle the night
Then under the velvet, musicians awaken
And play heaven's music by the Milky Way's light
Don't weep for my passing, reserve all your sorrow
For those who have souls but never have seen
The glories of nature on a day such as this one
When the world was as perfect as this poet's dream
And in my last hours I will savor the memories
Of those I have loved and have touched in my life
And just before sunrise, as darkness surrenders,
When the stars have all faded, then so shall I.
When the stars have all faded, then so shall I.
