OT: Anyone know any........Poems/Poetry

Good Evening Everyone I really don't know how to ask this question so I will explain what I need and why. My goddaughter was stillborn on Wednesday and her parents has asked me to read a poem at her memorial service. I am at a loss. I don't know any poems and am trying to think of any and every place and person I can go to ask for any poem befitting a beautiful little girl who departed this life before she ever got here. I know this may seem a strange request to some but as I said I am at a loss. My email address is [email protected]. I am thanking you for your response in advance. Spice

Firstly, I'm so sorry for your friend's loss. Here's a poem that might be appropriate...I don't know about any copyright information but the author is listed. When Tomorrow starts without me . . . When tomorrow starts without me and I'm not there to see, If the sun should rise and find your eyes all filled with tears for me. I wish so much you wouldn't cry the way you did today, While thinking of the many things we didn't get to say. I know how much you love me. As much as I Love You. And each time that you think of me I know you'll miss me too. But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand, That an angel came and called my name and took me by the hand. And said my place was ready in heaven far above, And that I'd have to leave behind all those I dearly love. But when I walked through heaven's gates, I felt so much at home, When God looked down and smiled at me from His great golden throne. He said "This is eternity and all I've promised you", Today for life on earth is past, but here it starts anew. I promise no tomorrow for today will always last, And since each day's the same way, there is no longing for the past. So when tomorrow starts without me, don't think we're far apart For every time you think of me, I'm right there in your heart. by David M. Romano I found this one also... The Book Of Life An angel for the Book of Life Wrote down my baby's birth And whispered as she closed the book. "Too beautiful for earth". I hope this helps. I will keep this family in my prayers.

Here are some that might be appropriate: They Say Love is Blind They say love is blind and you made this true. I never got to place you in a outfit either pink or blue. Never rocked you in my arms as you quietly slept. Not one tear did i get to dry as you sadly wept. I loved you none the less with all of my heart. My world crashing down when we were torn apart. I dream of you wrapped in a blanket of a white angel wing. The lullaby you hear is the comfort I wanted to bring. I still hold you everyday the only way i know how. God doesn't take my love for you this much he does allow. It is as strong as it would have been if I would have seen you. After my journey in life is done I will carry my love through. It will carry me straight to you, you won't be hard to find. We will be together and I will hold the love that was blind. Looking into eyes that are mine that show a soul I made. I will place you upon my chest where you always should have laid. They say love is blind and you made this come true. I will place you in an outfit either pink or blue. I will rock you in my arms as you quietly sleep. I will dry your tears as you happily weep. Autumn Rain Do not stand by my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints upon the snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain and I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am that swift uplifting rush, Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand by my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die. You, your friends and their families are in my thoughts and prayers. Kelle
