Words of Comfort
Beautiful verses that offer comfort and express love.
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 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.
— Mary Elizabeth Frye
Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you planned:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad.
— Christina Rossetti
A beautiful life that came to an end,
They died as they lived, everyone's friend.
In our hearts a memory will always be kept,
Of one we loved and will never forget.
— Traditional
Gone from my sight, that is all,
Which is but a distant call.
They are not lost, nor have they gone,
But have the race of life well run.
Their life was full, their years were long,
Their memory still will make us strong.
Though gone from sight, they're not alone,
In our hearts they've found a home.
— Traditional
