Sap stirs near me, roots stretch and seize,
Sundering stones.
And rivers waken, start in monotones
Their later tunes.
Oaks bend their knotted knees
In labor, and the full earth groans
Like women big with their increase;
While underground my body lies,
With open eyes,
In this stiff pose of peace.

I don't know what you meant by it, but it showed to me that even if you are not alive, the world will go on without you. I really do like it. It is a bit depressing the way you worded the last line though; as if you were just shoved underground and the world took no notice of you, only caring that you were 'peaceful'.
