Existing

Standard
Thursday 10th March 

Existing in the substrata
Always there
Just under the surface
I know where
An unconscious state
That we share
Beyond the obvious
Love so rare

Love you both so much
Precious sons

Down this road of travel

Standard
Wednesday 9th March 

Down this road of travel
Lined upon either side
Are so many memories
From my eyes, they can't hide

They brighten up the journey
As I move far and wide
A constant companion
Like a comforting guide

Keeping me safe and sound
But the days when I've cried
I simply glance around
And the tears are soon dried

Those memories follow me
Such love they provide
Warming my heart and soul
As recollections collide

Love you both so much
Beloved sons

Dorset driving

Standard
Monday 7th March 

Dorset driving
Down to the coast
Swans and pheasants
To the sea, almost
Abbotsbury and Chesil
A breezy outpost

Love you both so much
Treasured sons

An elegant swan
Enjoying the pond
Beautiful day
The Swannery itself was closed, but we spied these on the water
Abbotsbury Children’s Farm buildings
Farm buildings and Abbotsbury Abbey
St Catherine’s Chapel
A regal looking cock pheasant
Wandering along the roadside
Chesil Bank
A massive bank of pebbles
Looking westward
A painted sea
We didn’t scrabble down to the sea…. I don’t think I would have managed to get back up again!
Tall trees lining the road

And off we go

Standard
Sunday 6th March 

And off we go
To Dorset again
Visiting family
Blue sky, no rain
An easy journey
In the fast lane

Love you both so much
Precious sons

Just past Honiton
On the way to Dorset
A daffodil lined road

The love

Standard
Saturday 5th March 

The love
Lives on
Forever

Wrapped
In memories
Together

Playing
On repeat
Whenever

Your spirit
And sparkle
A treasure

You gave
To us
Such pleasure

Forgotten....
Never
Ever

Love you both so much
My darling sons

Despite

Standard
Friday 4th March 

Despite the chaos and confusion
Of everything that happened
Despite the thunderstorm overhead 
My heart is surely gladdened
That you were a part of our lives
Yet sometimes we are saddened
Clinging on to all those memories 
You gave us more than we imagined 

Love you both so much
Beloved sons

Silhouette of St Michael’s Mount across the fields

Reflecting

Standard
Thursday 3rd March 

Reflecting
On reflections

Remembering
The memories

Questioning
The questions

Seeing something
No one sees

And thinking
Positive thoughts

By story-telling
These stories

Love you both so much
Treasured sons

A blustery Porthmeor Beach
A few walkers around
The Chapel on the Island
Low tide in the harbour
Grey skies over Kitty’s Corner

Trying to see the light

Standard
Wednesday 2nd March 

Trying to see the light
Despite the surrounding dark
Suffocated by shadows
Which have surely left their mark

Hidden from the universe
Sheltered from the passing storm
Just quietly observing
Warmth in the arising dawn

Love you both so much
Precious sons
