Poems

These are a couple of poems that brought some comfort to me. I will admit that it took a couple of weeks before I could read them. One of them my Uncle Randy gave to me. The other one was sent to me from a woman who lost her baby the same way. I still go back and read these poems. They brought and still bring me comfort. They remind me where Mary Lynn is and the JOY and HAPPINESS she feels. There are still days I need to be reminded of that.

I know your heart is broken,
from the pain of losing me...
but Mommy, I'm so happy,
if only you could see.

There are angels all around me,
with flowers in their hair...
this place is filled with beauty,
God's love is everywhere.

He spared me from the sorrow,
that your earth has come to know...
so please don't worry, Mommy,
'cause Jesus loves me so.

Heaven's light shines brightly,
on my little angel face...
if only you could see me,
your pain would be erased.

Such happiness is waiting,
and one day you will see...
we'll finally meet in Heaven,
forever you and me.

A Baby's Secret
by Elsie Diamond

I'm just a little fellow
Who didn't quite make it there
I went straight to be with Jesus
But I'm waiting for you here.

Don't you fret about me mommy
I'm of all Gods lambs, most blest
I'd have loved to stay there with you
But the shepard knows what's best.

Many dwellings here where I live
waited years to enter in
Struggled through a world of sorrow
and their lives were marred with sin.

So sweet mommy don't you sorrow
Wipe those tears and chase the gloom
I went straight to Jesus bosom
from my lovely mother's womb.

Thank-you for the name you gave me
I'd have loved to brought it fame
But if I'd lingered in earth's shadows
I'd might instead have brought it shame.

Daddy gave me something for you
It's our secret mommy dear
He pressed it tight against my forehead
and whispered in my ear.

I'd be waiting for you mommy,
you, and Daddy and the rest
I'll be with you then forever
Then I'll give you Daddy's kiss.
