Jaidyn 1~

A face appeared before me
from my newspaper today

A little boy just smiling
Who could have taken him away

Everyone is wondering
What could have been his fate

It's a bizarre situation
We try not to speculate

Were you taken from a home
And walked through the open gate

Or was it more sininster
Your ever puzzling fate

A little boy so small
Unable to defend

We will keep wondering
Until the very end

Everyone is praying
You'll be found alive

We hope until then
Your family can survive

So little baby Jaidyn
We'll pray for you at night

We'll pray that you or your soul
Will reach that never ending light

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jaidyn 2~

Little boy lost you've been found

With your wings you're heavenly bound

You've got your wings to touch the sky

Still we're all left wondering why

Why this happened to such a small boy

With the look of happiness, smiling with joy

Well now you're in gods loving care

He and his angels in heaven will look after you there

In memory of Jaidyn a little boy who did no harm and could not defend and who was taken at such a young age by poeple unknown.

Thank you for posting this sad piece but in a way it has a happy ending....At least he's not suffering anymore.

All my love,

Jeffrey~
You are so right as they discovered in the trial that he had old bruising, so he was obviously being abused way before he was murdered and thrown into the nearbye dam wrapped in a blanket and weighed down by a piece of steel along with a few belongings such as his bottle and some clothing.
thanks for taking the time to read it.

Oh, Tracie~
This tears at my heart too.
May God send the Angel Jaidyn
to watch over another child who may be abused.
I'm so sorry for the loss of this child.
God how much it hurts.
The stories need to be told so that we
can all be reminded to watch for the signs and do something about it before it's too late.  
I'm glad you shared his story.

PoetdeVine~
This was an aweful tragedy like every other involving a child, this really saddened me though because it was so close to home. I live in the country and this happened in a town not far from me.
Thanks for reading.

Thanks for taking the time to read this little piece about another small child taken so horribly at the hands of monster/monsters unknown and murdered.
God keep all the little ones safely by your side.

These poems bring tears to my eyes. It is terrible for something like that to happen.

Love and hugs,

Tracie, I remember reading about Jaidyn in the papers and seeing his face on the news, I remember the tears that I could not stop. Such a tragedy.

Loved your poem!

My dear aussie girl   Thanks for your reply, it was a terrible thing you would have remembered reading also about the others involved the ones that through the pigs head outside the window the same night Jaidyn disappeared. So many things happened that night that what hope did the police, jury and judge have of ever knowing who murdered little Jaidyn. Case still unsolved
