Be Sure

Be Sure

by Elizabeth Challinor

Do you want to be buried here?

No

And when I die

Don't cry

Dance

And scatter

My ashes

On Addison's Walk

From Brighton Pier

Into the river in Tavira

Scatter them

With a grin

Into the sea in Viana do Castelo

In Praia Norte and Cabedelo

And don't forget

Our trustworthy canal

In Acton Trussell

Then choose another place

That tickles your fancy...

Be sure to travel by train

I'll save up for our trip


For Hannah, Carmen and Luís
