I want flowers, I think
Yes flowers are nice
Violets and posies
And peonies white
And I want a cremation
A bright open flame
And over the ocean
You'll spread my remains
I want a big crowd
Of all of my foes
Everyone who was the
Cause of my woes
And I want some words spoken
About how my life
Wasn't a waste of
Hardship and strife
And I want singing
And jubilant shouts
To celebrate what
My life was about
And -- oh! -- I want dancing
And laughing and talk
So though I won't be there
You can feel my love
And I want you to be there
And tell me you won't
Forget this poem
About what I want.
