Monday 11th October 

I'll have faith in my journey 
I'll trust this road 
I may not know the path 
Though I carry a load 
But I hope the way's clear 
Towards a new episode 
So onwards and upwards 
As my pace hasn't slowed 

Love you both 
My precious sons

Sunday 10th October 

All those tiny steps 
Add up 
Resulting in a journey of 
Many miles 
Just keep on keeping on 
Living life 

Love you both so much 
My darling sons

Saturday 9th October 

Touching the sky 
Caressing the clouds 
Clearing my thoughts 
Away from the crowds 

Love you both so much 
My darling sons

Friday 8th October 

It's still forward 
My heart knows 
That small steps 
On tippy toes 
Baby shuffles 
Y'know how it goes 
Tentatively 
Tenacity shows 
Moving through 
Never oppose 
Just keeping on 
Sigh and suppose 
Nurturing calm 
Peace then flows 
Soothing the storm 
As sunlight glows 

Love you both 
Darling sons

Thursday 7th October 

Moving gently forward 
Carrying thoughts of you 
The load still weighs the same  
But I'll keep plodding through  

Love you both
Treasured sons

Wednesday 6th October 

In dark dreams 
Beyond shadows 
Unheard screams 
Time has froze 
Falling down 
Dominoes 
Agitated 
Nightmare slows 
Thoughts abound 
Highs and lows 
Calm is sought 
Soft repose 

Love you both 
Precious sons

A moment in time 
A brief interlude 
Just for a second 
Hopefulness renewed 

Love you both

Sunday 3rd October 

Sunshine and showers 
Much brighter then hail 
Changing conditions 
Adapt and inhale 
Breathe in the fresh air 
New paths to unveil 
Stand strong in the storm 
Cast off then set sail 


Love you both 
Treasured sons

Saturday 2nd October 

Beneath the umbrella
Just standing in the rain 
Lost in thought for a while 
That here you must remain 

Thinking of you both 
One in heaven 
And one in Spain
