A poem for Bruce

This Navajo prayer seemed to be Bruce talking:

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.

You will live in our thoughts and memories.
Always, 
Linda Ward
