I am not there

Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep

I am in a thousand winds that blow, I am the softly falling snow.

I am the gentle showers of rain, I am the fields of ripening grain.

I am in the morning hush, I am in the graceful rush Of birds in circling flight.

I am the star shine of the night. I am in the flowers that bloom,

I am in a quiet room, I am the birds that sing,

I am in each lovely thing. Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there. I did not die.
