Sunday 1st December 

The December chill 
Memories swirl
Excitement shimmers 
Tinsel twirl 

Days gone by 
A time carefree 
Gathered together 
Filled with glee 
 
Beneath the laughter 
Lies a dark shadow 
The passing of time 
Like a river flow 

The heavy sadness 
Of moments gone 
Leaving behind 
A sorrowful song 
 
It's different now 
The way we feel 
There are some emotions 
Too raw to reveal 

Expressing our love 
And also the pain 
Keeping some hidden 
Keeping us sane 

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum
