I DID NOT DIE
By
Mary E. Frye 1932 (Amended by John G. Sutton (c) 2000)

                                Do not stand at my grave and weep
Read by John G. Sutton                                     I am not there - I do not sleep

                                                 I am a thousand winds that blow
                                                 I am the softly falling snow
                                                 I am in the drifting rain
                                                 I am in the ripening grain

                                                 I am in the midnight hush
                                                 I am in the morning rush
                                                 Of beautiful birds in joyous flight
                                                 I am in the pale moonlight

                                                 I am in the flowers that bloom
                                                 I am the stillness in the room
                                                 I am  the sunlights golden  ray
                                                 The glorious light of a summers day

                                                 Do not stand at my grave and cry-
                                                 I did not die.......
