Friday 23rd October
Storm Austen hit last night
The tempest struck with all its might
Last evening's fury, a fearsome sight
The wind's fierce grip, a chilling fright
Holding onto the roof so tight
Five in the morning before it got light
Quite scary, but we won this fight
It's all intact, so that's all right
And it didn't fly off like a kite
99 mph at its height
Love you so much

Thursday 22nd October
A heavy darkness
Starts to creep
The sky begins
To bruise and weep
The wind, a phantom
Starts to moan
An orchestra
Of nature's groan
Then fury breaks
A sudden might
The heavens tear
With blinding light
The rain descends
A drumming wall
Against the earth
It starts to fall
Love you so much

Wednesday 21st October
Change arrives, a quiet sigh
Skies grew grey before my eye
Bright would fade, dark would loom
Fleeting joy, a passing gloom
In and out, this ebb and flow
As the world appears, you know
Radiant warmth to chilling drip
Constant journey on life's ship
When the grey descends once more
I'll wait for sun to grace the floor
Love you so much

Tuesday 20th October
Grasping the joy
However small
Standing up straight
Lest you should fall
This precious gift
A fragile flame
Whispers your own
Unique name
A doubt, or shadow
It may creep
While deeper truths
Are buried deep
But in clarity
Of the light
Conquering darkness
With all might
Love you so much

Monday 19th October
Days grow crisp
Twilight stretches long
Echoes of the earth
Compose a sombre song
Each step taken
Past and present blend
Journeys wrap in whispers
Without decisive end
Love you so much
xxxxx
Sunday 18th October
The air
A crisp caress
Invites
The soul to roam
Dispelling
All distress
And calling
Spirits home
Love you so much
xxxxx
Saturday 17th October
The Sun, glowing bright
In morning's gentle hue
Across the Autumn light
A stretch of boundless blue
A whisper, soft and low
The breeze, a cooling sigh
Where fallen leaves do go
Beneath that vaulted sky
Love you so much
xxxxx
Friday 16th October
The echoes of the day
Now faint and far away
Allow the soul to pray
In its unspoken way
Quite simply to say
Why not come out to play
So struggle as you may
Don't let worries outweigh
This fabulous Friday
Love you so much
xxxxx
Thursday 15th October
The world outside
May hum and roar
A constant tide
Upon the shore
But here where thoughts
Begin to cease
Finding a quiet
Innermost peace
A place untouched
By hurried feet
Where silent whispers
Do softly meet
Love you so much
xxxxx
Wednesday 14th October
Time flows like a river
Weaving our tale
Through storms and sunshine
Together we sail
So here’s to the moments
Each big and small
Happy birthday, my husband
My love, my all
With dreams yet uncharted
And skies yet to roam
You are my forever
You are my home
Love you so much
xxxxx
