The Poem you seek

is titled, "Do not stand at my grave and weep" written by Mary Elizabeth Frye in 1932. I do not recall seeing this television movie however came across a newspaper "Q & A" clipping sent by a reader which referenced this movie and requested copy of the poem. The clipping printed the poem and noted the author as unknown and stated the writer of the TV movie heard it at a Hollywood funeral and incorporated it into the TV drama. In my experience many recall parts of the poem however the poet remains relatively obscure. I believe it may have been her most renowned work of poetry and has obviously inspired and comforted so many.
