If you stay absolutely silent you can edge so close that you will hear
the tiny fluttering of their wings. Then, as the morning sun warms,
they explode in to a cloud of swirling colour, dancing all around you.

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.
