                                I wished for the moon
 and it never came
 
 I wished for the sun
 but it only rained
 
 I wished for the stars
 they never appeared
 
 I wished and wished 
 but no wishes came

Hey, it's me, Lindsey. I just wanted to make it especially clear to everyone that this poem WAS NOT WRITTEN BY ME. My great-grandfather wrote it. All credit for this poem goes to him, so please direct your comments as such. 'Granny Joe' as he was called passed away before I could have a chance to know him. He left behind some beautiful poetry, and I thought he deserved to have his work shared with everyone. 
Remember, I DID NOT WRITE THIS. I only submitted it for him. Thank you!
