Tuesday 21st April 

The chill wind blows 
And blossom flies 
A dance of petals 
In the skies 
As whispers of spring 
Begin to tease 
Nature's laughter 
Floats with ease 

Love you so much 
Treasure sons 
Beloved Mum

Monday 20th April 

The journey's end 
The familiar door 
But this bitter grip 
Just can't ignore 

A chill descends 
Cold, windy air 
A longing wakes 
Beyond compare 

Dreaming of warmth 
A gentle breeze 
Beneath the gold 
Of sunlit trees 

Where skies are blue 
And shadows fade 
And golden rays 
On the ground laid 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Treasured Mum

Sunday 19th April 

Early morning 
Wake up alarm 
Off to the airport 
It's been a charm 

The bags are packed 
The keys in hand 
As we drive through 
This sleepy land 

A swift goodbye 
A whispered plea 
The airport awaits 
For you and me

Saturday 18th April 

Fuzeta by the water 
The sun shines bright 
Quiet breezes whisper
The day feels right
The boats gently sway 
Upon the azure sea 
While laughter dances 
Simply wild and free 

Love you so much 
Precious sons

Wednesday 15th April 

Beach daze 
Sun's rays

Sky haze 
Sunbed laze

Tuesday 14th April 

To Olhão's shore 
Where waters shine 
A lunchtime stop 
A pleasant wine  

Then to the garage 
A quick request 
Is Luke's car ready?
Put to the test

But words arrive 
A gentle sigh 
No, there are problems 
Not sure why 

The mechanic explains 
Trouble at play 
Dreams of smooth journeys 
Seem to drift away 

A moment's pause 
A small delay 
We'll find a way 
On another day 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Monday 13th April 

Morning ramblings 
As the world awakes 
With laughter mingling 
Each moment breaks 
Footsteps on cobblestones 
As stories unfold 
The warmth of the sun 
Has a gentle hold 
No heavy clock 
To mark the passing day 
This time is ours 
Oblivious as it slips away 

Tavira Portugal 

Love you so much

Sunday 12th April 

Gliding through dunes 
A gentle sway 
The windy gusts 
Now fade away 
We find a nook 
A sheltered space 
The beach awaits 
With calming grace 

Praia do Barril

Love you so much 
Precious sons
