The end of a year

A strange one at that

Let’s hope the next one’s

Of a different format

.

Always and forever

To the moon and back

Wednesday 30th December

.

Everyone’s given

The gift of time

Such a precious prize

Of a life sublime

Living, laughing, loving

The ladder you’d climb

Taking on the world

Trying to reach your prime

That you were cut short

Is such a sad crime

.

Thinking of you sweetie

Love you sweetheart

I say it every day

Miss you poppet

Wishing you could stay

.

You’re in heaven now

With angels you play

Far, far from here

Beyond the Milky Way

A rainbow this morning, in between the horizontal hail and stinging rain

Just before sunset

Monday 28th December

.

Grief just happens to be my friend

Quite an unwelcome one at that

Always beside me and in my head

As if I’ve put out the welcome mat

.

Not many see my companion

It doesn’t live in their habitat

Even as I bump into it

Popping round for a little chat

.

Others may think it’s been so long

Since around our table you sat

Their lives go on, new plans are made

Whilst I have fears to combat

.

Missing you poppet

Beloved Angel son

Sunday 27th December

.

Those years we spent together

So precious but not enough

I know I’m being selfish

But living without you is tough

.

Love you poppet

Sunshine between the showers

A blustery day on Porthmeor Beach

Saturday 26th December

.

Always awakening

With you in my head

Though never forgotten

You’re in heaven instead

.

Love you sweetheart

Friday 25th December

Six Christmases

Have passed you by

Remembering you

I’ll try not to cry

.

It’s getting close

It’s drawing near

Father Christmas

Would soon be here

.

It’s Christmastime

But not as you knew it

With big family dinners

A new a festive outfit

.

With our plates piled high

And your tomato soup

Eat, drink and pull crackers

Such a jolly, happy group

.

But this year it has changed

Only small little bubbles

With all trying to keep safe

Away from Covid troubles

.

Not sure how you’d have coped

Full of excitement and fun

Christmas was a special time

My dearest, darling one

.

Missing you sweetie

We’ll set a place for you

Thinking of the good times

And all we used to do

.

Love you my darling

Christmas 2020

Christmas 2015

A Christmas long ago 💖

Thursday 24th December

.

The Christmas Eve excitement

“When can I open my present?”

You loved this time of year

When Santa would appear

Our decorated house

And shop windows to browse

A time of joy and caring

A time of love and sharing

We miss you my darling

An Angel now guarding

.

Love you so much

Precious Angel son

Wednesday 23rd December

.

Don’t look back

It’s not good for you

But that is where we

Can rendezvous

.

Thinking of you

My beloved Angel son

xxxxx

So misty and drizzly today… You can’t see the top of the Island

Tuesday 22nd December

.

I’d like to hold you tight

But try as I might

You’ve gone from my sight

Up there you’re star’s bright

Growing wings you took flight

I’ll dream of you tonight

Smiling with inner light

.

Love you sweetie

Precious Angel son
