There will always be that dog... or cat


Recommended Posts

My Mom used to carry  this poem in her wallet, and I put it in my wallet when she died.

I think it not only 'applies' to humans, but our pets who we lovely dearly as  four footed  family members.  

Clare Harner's 1934 ,

The poem reads:
 "Do not stand at my grave and weep / I am not here, I do not sleep /
 I am a thousand winds that blow / I am the diamond's glints on snow /
 I am the sunlight on ripened grain / I am the autumn's gentle 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 here, I did not die."
