Description "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 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. "
- Mary Elizabeth Frye



I needed to submit this poem. [My favourite]

I love this song. I sang it for school once, it's kinda funny, I recently found the sheet music. I like the eye in the background it adds effect to it
