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'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 star that shines at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there; I did not die in vain as
long as my sacrifice is not forgotten.

ReplyDeleteHi Kathy
ReplyDeleteThis is so poignant!!!
My dad was a war vet and has just died at 90 with a full military funeral and buried in the war cemetary. It was Oh so sad.
Thanks for following. I shall reciprocate!
Have a great Sunday,
Suzy
