When I'm Gone...

Slightly morbid, but I love this enough to share. When I die I want the below shared at my "Life Celebration". Oh, and I like the term "Life Celebration" way more than the words funeral or memorial.

Oh, and I don't have an author to attribute this too. I'll have to google and see what I come up with.


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 beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.
