Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a t housand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow,I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When y ou awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rushof quiet birds in circled flight, I am the soft stars that shine at nigh t. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. - Anonymous
