transcending
beyond existence
his ashes embraced
Hay(na)ku
A tercet: 3 lines.
A total of 6 words: 1 in the first line, 2 in the second line, and 3 in the third line.
There is no restriction on syllables or stressed or rhymes.
Variations:
In the ‘reverse’ haynaku, the longest line is placed first and the shortest last. The total is still 6 words: 3 in the first line, 2 in the second line, and 1 in the third line.
Multiple hay(na)ku can be chained to form a longer poem.

…by the gulf in which they were tossed…. (my father).sigh
I just saw in the paper that there is a company that will solidifiy ones ashes into an egg shape… I think I’d rather just go with the wind.
💖sigh…
Relating to your second comment – an egg, really! I’d rather just go with the wind too.
After donations and science has its’ go round… then ashes. sigh
Another excellent interpretation 🙂
