The last photo

Standard
Thursday 7th March 

The last photo of you 
With a Knickerbocker Glory
That was nine years ago
Now a memory's story

Everything seemed fine
Treatment going well
You have a little smile
Happy tales to tell

Little did we know
What lay ahead
Home from hospital
Spending time in bed

Chemotherapy 
A battle to fight
But cancer's a thief
Stealing the light

Leaving only grief
In its silent wake
If only we knew
The path it would take

Love you so much
Treasured sons
Beloved Mum
