Description
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.
For a dear friend who lost her husband suddenly last week :(

Sorry not been around. Just not got my heart in art any more. Not got my heart in much at all tbh. But had to do a picture for my dear friend.
Thanks

You may not have your heart in much, but it was certainly in the right place for this wonderful tribute! Thank you for sharing with us, and as always, I wish you the best M'lady!
Wonderful wonderful render Bravo and once again my hat is off to you
Very beautiful dedication, outstanding work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just came across your image quite by chance (Brendan Behan) springs immediately to mind 'LL' Beautiful image and the poem, very moving also. If you don't mind I'd like to add something - 'Fe na Realty Godeo' or in English Beneath the Stars Forever! A Passion is always better when shared, don't let it die too!
touching poem .... great words !!
