Bonnie Underfoot



Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that swiftly blow.
I am the diamond glint
on newly fallen snow.
I am the sunlight
on ripened grain.
I am the soft and gentle autumn rain.

When you wake from sleep in the early morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft, starlight at night.

Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there.
I do not sleep.

If you've ever had to introduce a second cat into the home, you'll find this pretty funny:

We are very sad. We didn't see this before. That is a beautiful poem and we hope to see Bonnie at the Rainbow Bridge someday.

It's always sad. The world is just that little bit less beautiful and your life that little bit less full.
