Monday 21st October 

When all's said and done 
What will there be? 
A legacy of dreams 
Of hopes, all agree 

The echoes of laughter 
The echoes of tears 
The memories of triumphs 
The memories of fears 

But in the end 
When all's said and done 
We are but dust 
Beneath the setting sun 

Yet in our hearts 
A spark does remain 
A flame that burns 
Despite the pain 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Sunday 20th October 

Then, it was simpler 
A time of carefree skies 
When laughter filled the quiet 
And life knew no disguise 

Then, the world was softer 
With every step we took 
No shadows crept behind us 
No worries to unhook 

But time, it moves so swiftly 
And seasons change their hue 
Yet in my heart, I keep it 
The "then" I shared with you 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Saturday 19th October 

And that is why 
The sun rises each day 
To chase away the darkness 
In its own bright way 
To kiss the earth 
With its warm golden light 
And banish the shadows 
Of dreams filled with fright 

And that is why 
The stars shine in the night 
To give us hope 
And fill us with delight 
To guide us 
When we're lost and alone 
And remind us that 
We're never on our own 

Love you so much
Precious sons

Friday 18th October 

The trees stand tall 
Branches near bare 
Few leaves to rustle 
In the damp air 
Their whispers lost 
In the grey silence 
Their roots anchoring 
In calm defiance 

Love you so much
Precious sons

Thursday 17th October 

Pondering mysteries of life 
The purpose of it all 
Wandering through fields of dreams 
Where memories recall 
Contemplating the universe 
Its vastness and wonder 
Seeking truths in the stars 
Looking up, at those we live under 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Wednesday 16th October 

In the quiet of a sanctuary 
Sitting and reflecting 
A journey continues within 
Where the mind is connecting 
Introspection stirs 
Like a soft, gentle breeze 
Bringing forth mysteries 
Hidden in silent pleas 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 15th October 

In a land of deep reflection 
Where random thoughts do roam 
The mind turns to pondering 
Wandering, contemplating alone 
Through valleys of uncertainty 
And mountains of rising doubt 
Searching for those answers 
Trying to figure them out 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum 

Monday 24th October 

Here’s to your laughter 
Your dreams, your day 
In love and with joy 
We’ll find our way 
Happy birthday, my husband 
My world, my friend 
Together forever 
Our love has no end 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Sunday 13th October 

In the midst 
Of the grey monotone 
Lies a world 
So flat and blown 
A landscape 
Devoid of colour or light 
But within 
Its depths there's still a fight 

The sky above 
Hangs heavy and dark 
Blankets of clouds 
Cold and stark 
No sun to pierce 
Through the gloom 
No sign of life 
No flowers to bloom 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Saturday 12th October 

Taking a moment 
And closing eyes 
Letting the spirit 
Truly rise 
Breathing in 
All that's good 
Then releasing all 
That's misunderstood 

Love you so much
Precious sons
