When I Die Poem by John Agandin
When I Die
When I die,
Cry not your heart out
Nor weep any tears at my grave
I will not see you, cry for me now.
When I die,
Wear no sorrows or regrets
And bear neither grief nor pain on account of me
I will be singing Hallelujahs.
When I die,
Do not come dressed in fancy clothes
Smelling like a thousand lavenders
I can not admire you then, dress for me today.
When I die,
Read me no long tributes,
And compose me no epic verses
I will not hear you, praise me today.
When I die,
Put me quietly in my grave
Give your money to the poor
And your tears to the oppressed
And leave me in peace and quiet to rest.
When I die, Wear no sorrows or regrets Bear neither grief nor pain on account of me I will be singing Hallelujahs..... What a bold writing...... thinking of one's own death and writing about it..... very fine dear poet. tony
