Grave Farm

The trees in grave yards always look so big, and the grass is very green, obviously because of the human fertilizer, coupled with the efforts of the groundskeepers.

I propose that all corpses left to the government for burial be put in the fallow fields on a state run farm. Come next season, the remaining bones will be shattered and scattered by the tiller, spreading calcium and whatever else is in bones (Iron? Vitamin C?) through the field.

       'the remaining bones' ?   

       I think cemetery forests have been done elsewhere, in a much more thoughtful fashion.

       It doesn't seem to matter what we plant, it all comes up daisies.   

       Not to self promote, but "Golfatory Cremetarian" was a better name.
