Grave

[beautifulchildslove]

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 stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there, I did not die.

Yeah, it almost made me cry... it's interesting that I've found a few like it in the newspaper though... in the obituitaries and funeral announcements section. lol. But they're good.
