A city for after-life

Flowers are floating, yet alive,
Flowers that float with bodies
Through the streets of people

They who are flowers bearing
The burden of a death to river
Not yet dead, yet with flowers.

A river not yet dead with men
Stays alive in sealed brass pot
To keep alive afterlife of dying.

(Varanasi is our city for life and death and after-life)
