MATTHEWS, Jessie Alberta
1914 - 2003
Do not stand by my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep
I am the thousand winds that blow
I am a diamond glint on snow
I am the sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain
When you awake in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight
I am the soft starshine at night
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there, I did not die.
