Monday 30th October
The first time ever
Despite being careful
Rest, water, and painkillers
Keeps from being fearful
Bedbound for a while
Hoping for a brighter day
Covid, please do one
And go far away
Love you so much

Sunday 29th October
If I close my eyes
Will the monsters retreat?
If I turn away
Will they take a back seat?
Love you so much

Saturday 28th October
"Why can't I?" you ask
With a hopeful plea
You try and you try
But the answers aren't free
You know, deep inside
You've got strength to find
So chase your dreams
Leave your doubts behind
Love you so much

Friday 27th October
To Exeter
Oncology
End of the trial
Ten years for me
Uneasy feelings
Weigh heavily
Safety blanket
Is gone you see
Melanoma
Uncertainty
Love you so much

The winds of change blow
The seasons transform
Within us, the strength
To weather the storm
Live the life now
With purpose and grace
Every step forward
A new breath to embrace

Wednesday 25
Back in a routine
Much to wash and clean
This life has its rhythm
And I've made my decision
To be able to travel
Watch adventures unravel

A very early flight
Taking off, dark as night
Soon sunrise, golden light
Beautiful morning sight

Sunday 22nd October
Rainy days and Sundays
Sitting in dry cafés
Watching the wind and rain
With a look of disdain
Hot coffee and toasties
So good for times like these
We bought an umbrella
Protects from the weather
Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum
