Death Nesting - Carry My Ashes (scatter me)

When the fire has done its part, don’t you grieve with a heavy heart. Take what’s left and let it fly, to the places I called mine. Scatter me where the river bends, scatter me where the tall grass ends. Scatter me where the wild birds roam, scatter me in the place called home. Carry my ashes, gentle and kind, let the wind write the rest of my lines. No stone to mark, no bed to keep, just open sky where my spirit sleeps. Carry me to the mountain high, scatter me beneath the sky. Let the wind decide the way, where my dust and soul will lay. Hold me close in the letting go, set me free in the waters’ flow. Every breath, I’ll be near, every step, I’ll still be here. Some to river, some to rain, some to earth to heal the pain. Some to forest, roots so deep, some to ocean, endless sleep. Carry my ashes, gentle and kind, let the wind write the rest of my lines. No stone to mark, no bed to keep, just open sky where my spirit sleeps. Scatter me… to the places I longed to be. Scatter me… into the free.
