SEPTEMBER 5,1982 TO JANUARY 5,1982

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 mornings 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.


I was so excited when I woke up today I heard my Mommy was coming to
play I washed my wings and my halo too Cuz that's what Mommy likes me
to do I went to the place where I knew she'd be It's where she comes
to visit me She comes for comfort in her despair Oh Mommy, can't you
feel me touching your hair? I'm by your side all through the night I
never let you out of my sight I was your baby for only a day But soon
we can be together and play You know we'll never be apart You'll never
let me leave your heart Mommy I'm not really in the ground, lift up
your head and look around The clouds, the birds, the raindrops too
these gifts of life were given to you Don't cry for me Mommy, I know
you're here Please let me wipe away that tear. I was sent to you from
up above And you showed me the ultimate love Instead of giving me all
of your years You freely gave me all of your tears Remember your
relatives, the ones who have died? They brought me here, I'm by their
side They watch over me and help me to see just how much you really
love me So don't be unhappy when you come visit me I'm the angel above
you, up in the tree And when you leave, you'll never be through You'll
always be my Mommy And I'll always love you
