in my dreams i'm floating
i hover
above an aging cemetary
the wind gusts
through the outstretched fingers
of the towering trees
a group of people
surround an open grave
like fenceposts
this is my funeral
their mouths move
recounting the events of my life
what do they remember?
what impressions did i leave?
what was the last thing
that i said to each of them?
was it words
of encouragement
or a spiteful remark?
will my legacy be that
of someone who loved God
and had a zest for life
or a sullen and pessimisstic crab?
i awake and realize
that we are all pebbles
tossed into the pool of life
the waves we make
touch everyone around us
yet we are still in control
of how those waves will feel
when they reach the shore.
