Fun for Frank

Standard

Sunday 21st August

Three years ago we visited Universal Studios and Frank enjoyed the new Simpson’s carousel ride: “Kang & Kodos’ Twirl ‘n’ Hurl”. 

Not his usual white-knuckle, scary, adrenaline-rushing ride, but something a little different, a bit of childish fun; a new experience for him.

The ride had actually only been showcased ten days previously, so Frank was one of the first to try it out. 

He had a lot of fun, and it was wonderful to see him having such a good time. 

We also had short queues for the old favourites of ‘Men in Black’ and ‘Revenge of the Mummy’ rides too. 

‘Men in Black ~ Alien Attack’ never fails to bring out the competitiveness in us, as we shoot as many space creatures as possible

‘The Revenge of the Mummy’ ride, full of exciting special effects, twists and turns, and fast-paced action

  

In the theme park of heaven

Are you riding rollercoasters?

Laughing, smiling with delight

Up there, sparkling in the night.

Missing you, my fun-loving son

Now you’ll be forever young.

I love you, and I’m missing you

Wish you were here right now.

I can’t stop thinking about you

I’ll keep remembering, I vow.

Saying your name, my heart smiles

I’m full of pain, but still standing.

Keeping you alive in my heart

With memories of you; enchanting.

   

My sweetheart Angel baby

One in heaven

One on earth

My two sons.

  

One is there

One is here

My two boys.

  

One an Angel

One alive

My children.

  

One with wings

One still breathing

My two lads.

  

One a memory

One still making memories

My young men. 

  

I love you both

Always have

Always will.

Just wanted you to know

That I love you so.

Kisses to heaven I blow

As I look at your photo.

Seems like an age ago

Like there’s no tomorrow.

Still missing you though

Lost without my shadow.

Fly high, over the rainbow

May your star forever glow.

Wednesday 17th August

  

Not a day goes by

My heart aches

Never the same again.

   

Living and breathing 

Every single day

Without you.

   

Looking for moments 

Filled with you

The little signs.

    

More than anyone knows

You are missed

Lives forever changed.

   

My heart holds you

My love eternal

My grief timeless.

Grey and misty at the beach

A good swell forming

Red flags ~ no swimming

You’re gone

Standard

Tuesday 16gh August
   

You’re gone 

From our lives

But I hope you can:

Touch the stars

Jump through clouds

Talk to the moon

Kiss Betty Boop

Slide down rainbows

Swim with dolphins

Run with the wind

Laugh with angels

Smile at the sun

My precious Starman

Now forever young.

Kisses in the sky

Standard

   

Monday 15th August

  

There are kisses in the sky

Sent from you, so I don’t cry.

A great big cross, against the blue

Showing me that’s where you flew.

Through the clouds, to heaven above

We’re sending you all our love.

Looking up, to where you are

The best, the brightest, shining star.

  

Love you forever my darling Angel

Anniversary

Standard

Sunday 14th August

  

Today is our wedding anniversary

Thirty four years of Mr and Mrs

We came to see you this morning

Talking about past times

With you and your brother

Fun, family summer holidays

Our anniversary in the middle

Out to dinner, a theme park, a sail

Tropical adventures to new destinations

Wish you were still here with us

Celebrating, choosing the restaurant.

Thinking of you, as we always do

Missing you today and every day

Love you to the moon and back

Dearest, darling Angel son.

A walk to Gwithian

Godrevy lighthouse in the distance

Flying high, Starman

Happy Chappy

Saturday 13th August
  

Happy chappy, lovely boy

Little sweetheart, full of joy.

Fun and laughter, tears and strife

Filled with love, your shortened life.

There were no signs, who could know?

That far too soon, off you’d go.

So off to heaven you did fly

Leaving us to grieve and cry.

Although I’m here, you are there

Within my heart, you’re everywhere.

Missing you, Angel baby

Flying high, your spirit’s set free.

Memory Lane

Standard

Friday 12th August
   

Walking down

Memory Lane.

Again.

Everything

Is sparkling

And more 

Aglow.

Happiness

Fills the air.

No sense

Of urgency.

No teetering

On the edge.

Calm surrounds

With naivete

And innocence.

Memory Lane:

An escape

From the now

From reality.

  

Precious Angel

Who now lives

I’m my

Memory Lane.

Love you

Miss you

Angel son.

My memory.
