Wednesday 20th May 

Sunbeams danced 
A golden hue
Upon the skin 
Bright and true 

Living life  
Beneath its gaze 
Through summer's heat 
And hazy days 

Yet lurking there 
A silent foe 
A shadow whispered 
Soft and low 

A change unseen 
A growing blight 
Could dim the future 
Steal the light 

So each morning 
Come what may 
Apply sunscreen 
Just don't delay

Tuesday 19th May 

Your skin, a cloak 
You always wear 
So tend it well 
With loving care 

The sun's harsh rays 
Can do you harm 
Protect its youth 
Keep its charm 

For every day 
Throughout the years 
The way you look 
Shouldn't end in tears

Monday 18th May

Look after your skin 
Shield it from the sun 
Then it'll keep you 
Looking truly young 

Your largest organ 
You'll wear it daily 
For the rest of your life 
Take care of it matey! 

Sunscreen each morning 
Protect from UV 
You'll thank yourself later 
Just you wait and see

Sunday 17th May 

Thirteen years ago 
Surgery on my toe
A wide excision 
Skin graft to go
It's melanoma 
Felt quite low
The scar remains 
A reminder though
To take care 
Sunscreen, hello
Being vigilant 
Staying in the know
Protect your skin 
No red afterglow

Saturday 16th May 

Protect your skin 
Look after yourself 
You won't regret it 
Be in good health 

Enjoy the outdoors 
Use factor fifty 
Don't let your skin 
Become dry and crispy

Friday 15th May 

Shades and sunscreen 
Treading with care 
A warrior now 
In sunlit air 

Embrace outdoors 
But with a shield 
For life is precious 
And fate is sealed

Thursday 14th May 

How we danced 
On sandy shores 
Beneath the sun 
We craved for more 

Our skin, a canvas 
Basked in light 
Each sun-kissed hour 
A pure delight 

Yet every mark 
Each burn, each scar 
Holds secrets 
Fit for a memoir 

A tale of folly 
Baking on the sand 
Of youthful bliss 
As skin was tanned

Wednesday 13th May 

Chasing a tan 
As skin bakes to gold 
But in every scar 
There's a story to be told 
Youthful ignorance 
Now cancer has a hold

Tuesday 12th May 

Sunscreen, sunscreen 
Put it on your skin 
Big hat, big hat 
Wear it with a grin 

Seek shade, seek shade 
In the heat of the day 
Water, water 
Don't delay 

Cover up, cover up 
UPF clothing 
Protect, protect 
No bare skin exposing

Melanoma Awareness 
Protect your skin

Save your ass 

Monday 11th May

Melanoma 
It changes you 
Things aren't the same 
As once you knew 

Questions asked 
A pity party 
Why did this 
Happen to me? 

You liked the sun 
You got a tan 
No protection 
No master plan 

Yet through the shadows 
Dawn can break 
Though Melanoma 
Has changed the stakes 

Resilience blooms 
From the ache and strife 
Finding new ways 
To embrace this life
