Wednesday 21st August 

Catching the midday ferry 
Wending through islands steadily  
A way out to Faro Praia 
And the ocean's sparkling sea 

Waves that glisten azure blue 
Mesmerising with gentle sway 
Breezes that blow salt and tide 
On this fine and perfect day 

Far from shore yet close to dreams 
Eyes closed but aware of sounds 
A soporific state to be
Relaxation knows no bounds

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum
