Put a flower in my hair

Put a flower in my hair-
Be sure to whisper a prayer-
For into the wild unknown I am not prepared-
Last my beauty will fade-
Into a fare and fond memory-
Forever temporary-
Yet the peace of a silent mind is what I seek-
So you will surly remember me as meek-
So please put a flower in my hair and send me off with a prayer-
You kind words are all I'll wear.
