Immorality

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 sunlight on ripened Grain,

I am the gentle autumn’s rain.

When you awaken in the morning

I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not there, I did not die…
