This is a beautifully composed poem, Gypsy. I love the
use of colored fonts, the picture, the formatting of the
lines, and your message. Your lines flow smoothly with
great imagery. I love the sentiment of the ending.
Respectfully, Jan

Gypsy,
This could be both about before and after death. It could be after death with the soul reflecting that the ashes that they scatter will be returned to them in the future elements of nature and that she will always be alive in the hearts of her living loved ones.
Keep writng and stay healthy.
Joan

Another fine poem, Gypsy....and a hopeful one. It's true, all we'll have to mark our passage though reality's realm is the memories of others , for good or bad.

GBR,

I love your poem--the eternality of it. During the pandemic I read Japanese Death Poems by Yoel Hoffman. Very interesting. Had never heard about this concept.

For some reason your poem reminds me of an Avett Brothers song, No Hard Feelings. 'Where will I go? Through Georgia grains, tropical rains or snow from the heavens."

Thanks for sharing it

This poem is very elegant. It is both sad and pensive, and cheerful. Apart from the content, I appreciate the graphical presentation, it was a good idea to play with colours.

M.,

How lovely! Tragic, sad, heart-breaking -- but truly lovely. And kinda appropriate, too, here at Mother's Day. To be thinking about how your remains will linger with your children... I haven't seen this form before. But I like it quite a lot. As always, I adore the presentation. Beautiful!

This is a lovely use of a metaphor to paint a complete word picture. Death is so often a dark and sad subject, hidden in words of anticipation of the hereafter. Your words do neither, but speak a quiet truth.

This is lovely, Gypsy. I love the thought of the ashes across oceans and seas. Your descriptions of where descendants would feel and sense you are really looking. Beautifully presented, cheers
