Bri's Tombstone....[ Fun; Side One And Side Two Of My Epitaph; Fantasy; Death; Memorial; Very Short]



Side ONE

Lay no flowers
at my grave.
But bring me
Ice Cream instead.
I don't know if
I'll enjoy it.
I won't know....
till I am dead.


Side TWO

I planned to out-
live my last wife.
I'd had enough,
had the 'last straw'.
But I was first to
lose my life, as...
SHE was FASTER....
'on the draw'.

Cute... reminds me of the Tombstone, AZ epitaph in Boot Hill: Here lies Lester Moore, shot five times with a Colt's 44... no Less, no More!

You have by far proved proverbial for your love of ice creams! On your tomb stone I shall add this epitaph if I am able to survive you! Here lies a man who ate lots of ice cream At its sight his eyes used to gleam His name was Bri Though a nice guy, If denied ice cream, in death too he would scream!
