Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Hi, everyone. I just got back home and am trying to get caught up with emails. I read about Del and am so sorry to hear the news. God bless him and his family and all the people who love and miss him. I found an article about the author of the poem and copied it for those who were wanting to know. Hugs to all. VickieG Frye's (attributed) famous inspirational poem, prayer, and bereavement verse While generally now attributed to Frye, the hugely popular bereavement poem 'Do not Stand at My Grave and Weep' (often shown as 'Don't Stand at My Grave and Weep) has uncertain history and origins. Debate surrounds the definitive and original wording of this remarkable verse, and for some people the authorship is unresolved too. The best evidence and research (summarised below) indicates that Frye is the author of the earliest version, and that she wrote it in 1932. However, many different variations of the poem can now be found, and many different claims of authorship have been made, and continue to be made.
