I Am Not There

A couplet poem about life and death from an inmate.

 I am a thousand winds that blow;

I am the diamond glint on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain;

I am the gentle summer rain.

 

When you awake in the morning hush;

I am the swift, uplifting rush.

Of quiet birds in circling flight;

I am the soft starlight at night.

 

Do not stand at my grave and weep;

I am not there, I do not sleep.

Do not look to my grave and cry;

I am not there, I didn't really die.
