My mother passed away this past Monday and this week has been very rough for me. A couple of weeks ago I did the quest where you get a copy of "Alicia's Poem" as a reward, but I never looked at it. I logged into game yesterday, hoping to get my mind off of things and as I was going through my bag, I saw the poem in my bag but STILL didn't read it. This morning I did....
~~~~~
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
across Northrend's bright and shining snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
on Westfall's fields of golden grain.
I am in the morning hush,
of Stranglethorn's jungle, green and lush.
I am in the drums loud and grand,
the thunderous hooves across Nagrand.
I am the stars warmly gleaming,
over Darnassus softly dreaming.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.
~~~~~
I think that, sometimes, things are just meant to happen. I think reading that poem this morning was one of them. Thank you, Blizzard...
