This classical poetry is written by Mary Elizabeth Frye in 1932. She wrote this inspirational poem and scribbled it on a paper bag to comfort a family friend who had lost her mother.

One of the toughest things to do is to accept and embrace your own mortality. Scriptures refer to our worldly attachments as the main cause of our suffering and fears. I want to live in joy and ecstasy like that rising wave in the ocean, who rejoices in the fact that to merge with the mighty ocean will complete her. This knowing sets her free! This freedom allows her to enjoy her brief existence, fully and fearlessly. 

Presenting our next podcast in the Poetry That Inspires Series - Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep by Mary Elizabeth Frye 

Mary Frye writes a heart-touching poem called "Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep," wherein she speaks of death in a welcoming tone. She comforts those who would be saddened for her at her passing and she appears to accept death as the beginning of a new existence rather than the end of one.

This heart-touching poetry serves to offer comfort and reassurance to the listeners who might be listening to this powerful life poetry. In this inspirational poem in English, the poet claims that she does not sleep in the grave and that she can still with them in the elements of nature. This helps the listeners to realize that they will always be able to sense her presence, even though it is not physically there.

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep

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 sun 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.

~ Mary Elizabeth Frye
