Scottie's obituary

Do Not Stand At My Urn And Weep
For Ollie Sylvester Scott
Chicago, IL
Do not stand at my urn and weep
Do not lose slumber nor sleep
For I am not there
I am in the smile that you brandished upon first sight at your newborn
I am in a state where there is absolutely no lovelorn.
I am Free.
I have surpassed this temporary world and all of its restrictions
There is no need for an itinerary nor prescriptions.
I am in the laughter that you shared with friends and family
I am Free
I am in that love song that you sing when you are happy
I tell you that I know that I know that I know that I am free.
I am in those last few dollars you came across when you
Thought that you were totally broke!
I am in Heaven in celestial surroundings alive and awoke!
I am Free.
I am in that touchdown that you scored in the last quarter
I am the vessel that quenches your thirst I am cool ice and
ever flowing water.
So please do not stand at my urn and cry
For I am not there
I have earned my wings to fly.
Get on over to the repast
Play some music loud and fast
Because I am Free.
