<BR />We don't stand at your grave and weep.
<BR />You are not there. You do not sleep.
<BR />You are a thousand winds that blow.
<BR />You are the diamond glints on snow.
<BR />You are the sunlight on ripened grain.
<BR />You are the gentle autumn rain.
<BR />When we awaken in the morning's hush,
<BR />You are the swift uplifting rush
<BR />Of quiet birds in circling flight.
<BR />You are the soft star that shines at night.
<BR />We don't stand at your grave and cry.
<BR /><DIV>You are not there. You did not die.
</DIV>
<BR /><DIV>Mary Elizabeth Frye nee Clark [adapted]
