Saturday 11th April 

Chilled beach bar vibes
Parasols and comfy chairs
Lounging for a few hours 
Gone are all the cares 

There's no rush to be 
There's no need to strive 
Just breathing deeply 
And feeling quite alive 

The warm, salty breeze 
Touches with soft embrace 
As time slows gently 
Its hurried, anxious pace 

Ilha de Tavira 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 10th April 

In Santa Luzia 
Where tides softly sway 
An octopus dances 
In waters at play 
With arms like ribbons 
It glides through the blue
A feast of the sea 
In a world fresh and new 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Thursday 9th April 

The river flows 
With whispered sighs 
Beneath the weight 
Of burdened skies 
The golden light 
Is muffled in grey
As shadows stretch 
Swallowing up the day 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons 
Treasured Mum

Wednesday 8th April 

Wandering around Faro marina 
In the bright sunshine 
Taking in the colours so vivid 
Boats bobbing on the brine 
Rippling water reflects the sky 
Where trains rumble on rusty tracks 
Planes soar high with a roar 
Now there’s nothing that lacks

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 7th April 

On a day where clouds 
Wrap the sky in grey 
Raindrops dance 
Where children play 

Bright shop-fronts beckon 
With colours so bold 
Laughter weaves stories 
Both new and old 

In cozy cafés 
Warm scent of a brew 
Inviting the crowds 
To seek shelter anew 

Huddling together 
With tales to impart 
Bonding in moments 
Warming every heart 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons 
Treasured Mum

Monday 6th April 

Santa Luzia 
For morning coffee 
It's not so sunny 
Sky's wishy washy 

Back in Tavira 
Tasty almond tart 
It's still quite warm 
Clouds drifting apart 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Sunday 5th April 

Beside the river 
Slow wandering 
Whispers dance 
Thoughts pondering 

The busy world 
Is left behind 
Nothing weighing 
On the mind 

Just leafy trees 
And cooling air
And quiet peace 
Beyond compare 

Love you so much 
Beloved sons 
Treasured Mum

Saturday 4th April 

In Fuzeta's warmth 
Where sunbeams dance 
A clean table awaits 
A chance to glance 

Beneath the blue sky 
Laughter fills the air 
Savouring flavours 
In the sun’s gentle glare 

Family gathers round 
Plates laid out wide 
Each bite a delight 
A moment to bide 

The sea whispers softly 
A song of its own 
As waves kiss the shore 
Where memories are sown 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 3rd April 

Cabanas de Tavira 
Such a beautiful day
Blue skies overhead 
Sparkling across the bay

Love you so much 
Precious sons

Thursday 2nd April 

Tavira roaming 
Coffee and cake 
Morning meandering  
Ours to take 

Lunchtime stop 
At the riverside 
Slow and gentle 
Time's ours to bide 

Floral displays 
Orange blossom 
A heady scent 
Just so awesome 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum
