It's just so sad I want to cry everytime I read this. No, it's not my own but I wanted to share it

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.

I find it a bright, happy poem rather than sad - a poem for cheering up their beloved at a sad time.
