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's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush, Of quiet birds in circle flight, I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not, die.God Bless You All, The Sanchez Family
