Monday 31st August

You’ve been an Angel

For two thousand days

And there in my heart

You’re beating always

.

Two thousand nights

Thinking about you

Just gone too soon

We never knew

.

Two thousand mornings

Without you here

Waking up

Wishing you were near

.

Calendar pages

Of thirties

And thirty ones

How the time journeys

.

We miss you still

And always will

My darling Angel son

Now forever young

Sunday 30th August

.

No words

Just thoughts

What ifs

And oughts

.

Memories

So many

Maybes

Aplenty

.

Love

No question

Everlasting

My affection

.

Thinking of you

Precious Angel son

Saturday 29th August

.

So much left to say

So much love to give

And in my dreams

So much life to live

.

Love you forever

Beloved Angel son

Driving along Park Avenue

Looking down on the harbour

Friday 28th August

.

And I think about you all the time

Taken when you were in your prime

So unexpectedly; such a crime

You’re my Angel, sweet son of mine

.

Love you forever

Thursday 27th August

.

What’s real

To be different

Unimaginable

To change

The chaotic

To calm

Memories

To endure

Love

Undying

.

Miss you poppet

Beloved Angel son

xxxxx

Calmer today, after heavy downpours overnight

.

Wednesday 26th August

.

A never-ending journey

Searching for the light

At the end of a tunnel

In the darkest night

Without a map to guide

Left in a desperate plight

When sleep doesn’t come

A scary nightmare’s fright

.

Thinking of you sweetie

Precious Angel son

xxxxx

A much better day

The crowds are out

Enjoying the surf

Sitting on the slipway at the harbour

Beneath blue skies

Not a bad day at all

Tuesday 25th August

.

Dappling sunlight

Dancing through the trees

Glimmering sparkles

Bouncing off the leaves

Shimmying sprites

Are you in the breeze?

.

Thinking of you always

My precious little one

Safe in my heart

Beloved Angel son

.

Monday 24th August

.

And there you are

Showing up

Between the silence

Of my thoughts

.

An image of you

Breaking through

The calmness

Of my psyche

.

To make me smile

To make me cry

And I wouldn’t have

It any other way

.

Love you sweetheart

My darling Angel son

xxxxx

Another cloudy day

Still enjoying the waves

Maybe fewer on the beach today

Sunday 23rd August

.

An afterglow

Of smiles and laughter

Even though we didn’t have

A happy ever after

.

Thinking of you

Beloved Angel son

Saturday 22nd August

.

You’re always there

Soaring in the air

Flying somewhere

.

I’m acutely aware

That life’s unfair

No time to prepare

.

But our love we share

Know that I care

My sweet teddy bear

.

Beloved Angel son

Fluffy cirrus clouds

Wispy strands

Porthmeor Beach at low tide

Enjoying the surf

Enclosures seem necessary for social distancing

The surf school is doing a roaring trade

Looking towards the Island

A sunnier harbour today

Wide angle blue skies and big clouds
