Do not stand at my grave and weep
Words by Mary Frye
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 the each lovely thing
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there I do not die
In Desperate Housewife S4E10, when Lynette threw ashes of Ida who died in the hurricane protecting Lynette's children, this poem was read.
