Why do You weep?



Why do you weep?

Why do you sit by my grave? I'm not there. I do not sleep. I am the wind that blows through your hair. The sparkle that's in your eyes and the sunlight on the field of wheat and ripening grain. I'm the gentle autumn rain. You wake up in the silence of the morning and listen to the words I have spoken. Only you can hear the words I have whispered in your ear. Have no fear; it's only three words. I love you and always will. Then a morning dove appeared and my mind was cleared.
