Although you cannot see me, I have not left you. Although you cannot hear me, I still exist. Although you will forget me in time, do not fear. I am here even if you do not remember, I am bound here. I will watch over this land forever.

The white robe calls, I cannot deny or refuse it. The robe and stave, the infinite gyre of time. I step into it knowlingly. Do not fear for me. I am not afraid.

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 morning’s 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.
