Do not stand on my grave and weep
I am not there I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints in the snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain
I am a gentle Autumns rain
When you awaken in the morning hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
I am the birds in circled flight
I am the soft stars that shine at night
So do not stand on my grave and cry
I am not there.... I did not die



R.I.P Bob... safe travels

    Hi Nariane,

    I like the new look to your blog, it is elegant and green to my spirit, like the sign on a highway before the buffalo steps in the way...

    The poetry seems mysterious to me, and forgive my ignorance since I am soooo far away from you sweet friend, but I like your tone, and its desired attention... spanned my mind momentarily.... with something unexpected.

    Ciao baby,

    Jesse Noe

  3. Nariane-

    That is a very sweet & melancholy poem, did you write it? I also like the pic displayed above it- very moody.

    I don't know the relationship you had with the person to whom the poem is dedicated, but I hope your healing & peace come gracefully soon.

    THANKS for taking time to stop by my blog to comment- It's ALWAYS very much appreciated.

    Bob was at one time my Brotherinlaw and despite the divorce he remained 'family'

    No, unfortunately the poetry is not mine. I wish it was... *sigh*
