You ask what happens when we die,
I say the weather’s fine and the soil’s warming nicely.
You ask how to make good garden compost,
I say yes, that’s it exactly.
What’s it? you want to know.
I say the dirt between your toes, the ever changing clouds.
You say you hate to leave it all behind.
I say try this shovel, it’s the one my father used.
