I walk among the stones
Imagining my body lying
Beneath the ground

I walk among the stones
Wondering where to bury your ashes
I am here to buy the ground 

Our bodies will lie under
Side by side
Urn by urn

To add another stone marker
Here in the quiet field
where who knows what went on

in ancient times
I walk and open my spirit
To feel the pull

To feel the answer
I walk and open my heart
I think of sleep

I think of eternity
I think of earthly remains
I find our spot

I sign the papers
Here we will be
Maybe remembered
