Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there. I don’t sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
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.
