Do Not Stand - A Poem

 Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there, I do not sleep,

I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning’s hush, I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. 


Anon.
