Ground

These fallen leaves

On the cold January ground

Send a message profound.

I am bound

To be as these leaves

And fertilize the ground.

      That is a good point about being cremated, Vivienne. Of course some relatives/friends scatter the ashes of their loved ones in wooded areas or elsewhere outdoors and the ashes still fertilise the ground, whilst others retain them in recepticles of various kinds.
