    Default Do not stand at my grave and weep poem

    What do you think of the famous poem "Do not stand at my grave and weep?"

    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.

    Whenever I hear the last part sure it's touching but I also think 'um but the person DID die why are you sugarcoating it.'

    The real question is what the dead people think of it
