SPADEMAN - IVY

(nee Goldby)

Died on the 12th June,

aged 80 years.

To Mam,

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 mornings 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.

Goodnight, God bless Mam,

we loved you so much,

Yvonne, Iris, Joannie,

Robert, Beryl,

Raymond and all partners.
