Do not stand at my grave and weep: I am not there and do not sleep. I am thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glint on snow, I am the sunlight on ripened ground: 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!!
