Ickle Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 From UK Sheltie List 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 a diamond glint of snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning hush. I am the swift uplifting rush. Of quiet birds in circle 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
