https://www.poemhunter.com/poem/do-not- ... -and-weep/

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

There. That’s the lesson. It should be a “sticky” because it is that important.

Thanks SBB.

If the majority of the posters who are expressing their opinions on a subject are wrong, that is still the consensus. That is why consensus doesn't hold much sway in my shed.

Sometimes i don't want to or need to go through all the posts on a particular subject, as it seems you will do the research for me, thank you. Or i can just ask the group. Its great group for that. My choice really.

CLASSIC
