POEMS FOR LOGAN

I guess I lied. My first real post is 2 of my better poems from after Logan grew his wings. Don't hurt me! I have been stressed lately. I was meandering around Logan's site today and forgot that these were on there, so I STOLE them off my site! I have had like a bagillion computers since I wrote these and couldn't remember which one I saved them on (yes, you read into that right...I keep my computers!)

My Baby Boy Logan
My baby boy Logan, I love you with all my heart
The day you left , I didn't want to part
I miss you more and more , with each passing day
Oh, What I would do , Just lay there and pray
I was blessed with 2 sons , To touch, to love, to hold
Then one day in January , You went home, I was told
At first I was irate with God, How dare He take MY son?
But then I did figure out, He doesn't do it for fun
As he reached out for your hand, The snow began to fall
His tears did flow for me, A perfect angel, He did call
You had a long life ahead, To play, to grow, to learn
Family who loves you, And wants you to return
Now all we have are memories, Of how you were back then
A smile that lit up any room, A life that should have been
Sometimes I'll catch your brother, Looking to the sky
Babble out a couple words, Then let out a tiny cry
Do you come to his dreams? I know you come to mine
We all miss you so much, 128 days, not enough time!
Not a minute goes by, That you don't cross my mind
Like when Camryn crawls, talks, or plays, All I can do is sigh
Some say I put on a good front, But that's exactly what it is
I put on a smile, and shake my head, And go about my biz
Sometimes I just can't function, But I still try my best
All I can think about, Is how I really was blessed
You may have left, Leaving your home and all your pain
But please believe me, Your short life was not in vain
I know someday , I will see you again
But please understand, That I don't know when
I've got a few years, Before I can hold you so tight
Rock you and kiss you, Each and every night
Until then,, Just hear this from me
You will always be MY Angel Logan, But, "Our Little E.T."

In Loving Memory of
Logan Ryan Godfrey

"Forever in our hearts"
"Forever in our thoughts"

This poem was written by me on November 11, 2005. I was having a bad day and picked up a notebook and a pecil and began to write. I have always been an avid writer, but was not able to write anything after Logan passed away. This is the first time I was able to think clearly in 10 months and all my feelings came out. This poem has been theraputic for me and I am hoping that it will help others who are in my position and not able to reach out.

"Logan Kisses"
Written 3-21-06

I wish you were here
For me to hold you so tight
I wish you were here
For me to kiss all night.

I wish you were here
so I could see your every move
I wish you were here
So I could kiss your every bruise

I wish you were here
so your brother could know you
I wish you were here
Like the little boy that I knew. .

My wishes will never come true
and I have come to understand
That all I can wish for
is that you'll guide your brother to be a man.

Now the only thing that I wish for
Is a kiss from above
A kiss that only I can feel
From the little boy that I love.

Some people call them "Angel Kisses"
Like a gentle breeze in the air
I'll name them "Logan Kisses"
From my little man up there.
