"FLOWERS"
by Joanne Boyle
Don't sit by my grave and say sorry
or place flowers at my place of rest.
Come and join me at my table
when I invite you to be my guest.
when I can no longer hear.
Tell me to my face my friend
because to me it wasn't clear.
Do not shed a tear for me
that is really born from your regrets.
Instead make sure you won't have any,
let us share each others secrets.
Do not stand in a church doorway
and shake the hands of friends,
whilst believing in your heart
that this will make amends.
Do not bring me flowers
unless I can smell how sweet they are.
Bring them when I'm alive
and not watching from afar.
