Those new roses

Standard
Thursday 9th June 

Those new roses
Make me smile
And I think of you
For a little while
Just standing there
Quite immobile
Beneath the tree
Colours most tactile

Love you both so much
Beloved sons

Taking many photos

Standard
Wednesday 8th June 

Taking many photos
Collected down the years
Held safely in the cloud
All darkness melts and clears
Like a return ticket
So nothing disappears
It's the memory train
Packed full of cheers and tears

Love you both so much
Forever and always
Treasured sons

Bright and sunny in the harbour
The tide is going out
Bunkers Hill, on the way to Porthmeor Beach
The Island
Man’s Head
Very windy on Porthmeor Beach
Swimmers braving the cold
Quite choppy here

Sometimes

Standard
Tuesday 7th June 

Sometimes
I need to retreat
Far away
With peace, to greet
Silence
Calmness complete
Where noise
Takes a back seat
Knowing that
Life can be sweet

Love you both so much
Precious sons

A bright morning
Followed by drizzle this afternoon

Holding on

Standard
Monday 6th June 

Holding on
Being strong
Can't believe
It's been so long
Now you sing
An Angel's song
Up there with
The Heavenly throng
But, back here's
Where you belong
That you're gone
Feels so wrong

Love you both so much
Beloved sons

An afternoon tea party

Standard
Sunday 5th June 

An afternoon tea party
At my mother's care home
The Platinum Jubilee
And Queen upon her throne

Love you both so much
Beloved sons

St Ives this morning
Mum’s care home
A superb spread
Such a splendid cake
Mum with her crown
A little ‘Queen’ wave
Her Majesty
This really looked wonderful

Nothing

Standard
Saturday 4th June 

Nothing can separate us
Nothing
Nothing at all

Not time
Not distance
Not location

No matter what
Memories
Etched in my soul

Forever
Together
Forgotten, never

Love you both so much
Treasured sons

Life realign

Standard
Friday 3rd June 

Looking beyond
Those high walls
The darkest clouds
Tempestuous squalls

Trying to find
The warm sunshine
Pretty flowers
Life realign

Love you both so much
Forever and always
Treasured sons

Blue skies over St Ives

Golden rays

Standard
Thursday 2nd June

Golden rays
Azure sea
Fine, white sand
Busy quay
Sailing boats
Swaying tree
Tourists play
So carefree
Supping on
Cool iced tea
Or a glass
Of chablis
Platinum
Jubilee

Love you both so much
Always and forever
Precious sons

Rocky West Porthmeor
Lovely and warm today
Busy, busy, busy
Low tide
Windbreaks and beach tents; little room left!
Kitty’s Corner on the harbour
Many paddleboarders enjoying the calm sea
Smeaton’s Pier
Fore Street
