0 not stand at my grave and weep
I'm not tHere, I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that Show,
I am the diamondghints on snow
I am the sunCight on reopened grain
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you are awahe in the mornings hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circCing flight
I am the soft star shine at night
(Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not here, I did not die
