“I bequeath myself to the dirt to grow from the grass I love, If you want me again look for me under your boot-soles”
— Walt Whitman
Simplified Meaning:
The speaker says they will return to the earth and become part of the grass they love. If someone wants to find them later, they should look at the ground beneath their shoes.
