This is the spot where I will lie
When life has had enough of me,
These are the gra**es that will blow
Above me like a living sea.
These gay old lilies will not shrink
To draw their life from d**h of mine,
And I will give my body's fire
To make blue flowers on this vine.
"O Soul," I said, "have you no tears?
Was not the body dear to you?"
I heard my soul say carelessly,
"The myrtle flowers will grow more blue."
