Most Beautiful poem I've ever heard...

[HollyHolic]

"Do Not Stand At My Grave and Weep"

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

That is a beautiful poem, Angie, thank you for sharing
I am so sorry to hear about your aunt, littleholly if you ever need to talk, PM me.
Babies dying? Oh, I can't even think about that...

That was in a program from one of my mum's best friend's funeral that was today. I'll try to scan the picture of her that's in the cover. I'm going to miss her a lot.

BEaufiul poem. Sorry to hear about you losing realitives. The poem kind of reminds me of my friend's sister killed in a car accident. A Pepsi truck was driving behind them and the axel broke, hitting the car and killing all but the pepsi drive and drvier of the car. They weren't wearing seatbelts.
