Time passes gently

Standard
Saturday 30th September 

Time passes gently
In this tranquil space
Finding solace and rest
In this peaceful place
Letting the world fade
Unwinding and sway
Within the quiet hold
Of a brand new day

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum

Grey and drizzly this morning
Hardy surfers on Porthmeor Beach
Whilst having coffee, the tide came swiftly in
A grey afternoon

Sunny September

Standard
Friday 29th September 

Sunny September
A picturesque day
People wandering
Or in a café
Eating ice cream
Under skies quite blue
The incoming tide
Builds a scene anew

Love you so much

Sunny this morning
Porthmeor West
Smeaton’s Pier
Kitty’s Corner
A pretty afternoon
The harbour beach
One of the trip boats taking people around the bay

A storm blowing in

Standard
Wednesday 27th September 

A storm blowing in
A tempest's might
Heavy showers fall
Through day and night
Strong, gusty winds
Whisper tales untold
Swaying branches
In the gale's hold
A scattering of leaves
In autumn's grace
A dance of colour
In this fleeting space
As daylight shortens
And darkness weaves
The beauty of autumn
In its golden eves

Love you so much
Treasured sons

Clouds are gathering

Outdoors

Standard
Tuesday 26th September 

Outdoors
Where the wild winds roam
Appreciating
Not so far from home
Creating
Calm amidst the stormy sea
Indulging
In moments wild and free

Love you so much

Sunny this morning
Storm Agnes approaching
Bringing a good swell to Porthmeor Beach
Fun for the surfers
High tide
Still quite a few people about enjoying the beach
High tide in the harbour

Breathing in deep

Standard
Monday 25th September 

Breathing in deep
Finding calm and peace
No worries now
Letting anxieties cease
No hurries, just switch off
Letting troubles melt
Fear dissolves
In the serenity dealt

Love you so much

Sunny spells today

Our way home

Standard
Sunday 24th September 

The road stretches out
An endless line
As landscapes change
And we leave behind
The locations we've been
The places we've roamed
On this journey called life
We find our way home

Love you so much
Beloved sons

Dorset to Cornwall…. The ‘Nearly There Trees’….. still 72 miles from home!

Afternoon walks

Standard
Saturday 23rd September 

Afternoon walks
In formal gardens grand
Where beauty and nature
Go hand in hand
Beautiful flowers
In vibrant array
Colorful butterflies
Show graceful ballet

Pollen-feeding bees
Such hard working crew
In this harmonious scene
Life springs anew
Amidst this serene
And floral embrace
Nature's wonder
Displays in every space

Love you so much
Treasured sons

Wareham Quay
Saturday market
Family of swans on the River Frome
Peacock butterflies
Red admiral
Holme Gardens, near Wareham
Peaceful spaces to rest
Variety of shrubs
A pear pergola archway
Statues placed amongst the flowers
‘Holme Henge’
Gorgeous lawns and rockery shrubs
So colourful
A lawned amphitheatre
A maze of routes from which to choose
Variegated leaves
So many red admirals
The centre of a red aster
A warm afternoon
Many secluded áreas to sit
Lily pond
Pink asters
A peacock butterfly
Taking pollen from the flowers
A map is needed to walk through the twelve acres of grounds, and not become lost!
Vibrancy

A much better day

Standard
Friday 22nd September 

A much better day
Whispering in the breeze
A respite from the gloom 
A moment of ease
The world sighs relief
A collective smile
As hope lingers longer
Mile after mile

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum
