This is a poem shared by Pat Holtapp. Pat says she sometimes tucks it into sympathy cards:

 

I give you this

one thought to keep -

I am with you still,

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 think of me as gone.

I am with you still,

in each new dawn.

 

-Native American Prayer
