In Memory of Our Beloved Friends
Northwest Indian Memorial on Death
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 glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on the ripened grain.
I am the autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of birds circling in flight.
I am the stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep.

Nunquam Dormio "I Never Sleep"
May the breaking of our hearts as you leave
open us to even greater love for all beings.
