Promise

Standard
Thursday 23rd March 

And as I strive
To push ahead
To rise above
The fear and dread
I know that even
The darkest night
There's the promise
Of morning light

Love you so much

Finding comfort

Standard
Wednesday 22nd March 

Finding comfort in a silent room
Where thoughts can wander aimlessly
A place where I can let go of gloom
Embracing emotional tranquility

Love you so much

A mask

Standard
Tuesday 21st March 

Trying to hide stress and anxiety
Wearing a mask, that's all you'll see
Quite difficult sharing any fears
Keeping them to myself, with tears

I'll put on a smile, and act okay
Pretend everything's fine, every day
But deep down, I'm struggling inside
My doubts and worries, I try to hide

I know I can't keep this up forever
One day, I'll need help to pull me together
Until then, I'll keep wearing this mask
Hoping that one day, my worries will pass

Love you so much
Precious sons

Driving home from Dorset today
A lovely spring day
The journey took just over four hours
And not much traffic

Always there

Standard
Saturday 19th March 

Mum, I wish that I could hold your hand
And tell you all the things I've planned
To thank you for the love you gave
And all the sacrifices you made

For though you're gone, you're still with me
In every breath, in every memory
And in the love that we still share
I know you're always, always there

Love you so much

As only we could do

Standard
Saturday 18th March 

I miss your voice, your laugh
Your smile so bright
I long to see you
To hug you tight

To catch up on our lives
And all that we've been through
To share the joys and sorrows
As only we could do

Love you so much

On the way to Dorset
A family get together
Brighter skies after lots of rain

The rain

Standard
Friday 17th March 

The rain falls in a steady rhythm
A constant pitter-patter sound
A reminder of the sadness
That seems to always be around

But in the midst of all this gloom
Just try to find a ray of light
A glimmer of hope and beauty
Helping through this dreary sight

Love you so much

Grey days

Standard
Thursday 16th March 

Grey days; feelings of melancholy
A somber mood overtakes the mind
The world seems drab and colourless
As if all happiness is left behind

The clouds hang low and heavy
Like a weight upon the heart
Though there's longing for sunshine
It seems forever that they're apart

But though the day may be grey
And the mood may be subdued
Know that brighter days will come
And soon lifted from this mood

Love you so much

Seeking comfort

Standard
Wednesday 15th March 

Seeking comfort in the gentle breeze
As it whispers secrets to the ear
Nature's symphony puts the mind at ease
And wipes away every single tear

Love you so much

Release

Standard
Tuesday 14th March 

It's okay to take a break
To calm the mind and shake
Off the stress and the fear
And let those worries disappear

Take a deep breath in
Let it out again, begin
To feel the calm and the peace
Let those vexed thoughts release

Love you so much
Precious sons
