Author: Melinda Sue Pacho Do not stand at my grave and forever
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's 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 forever cry. I am not there. I did not
die.
