I wander lost

Standard
Tuesday 21st January 

I wander lost
Unsure of where to go
The path ahead seems dark
The light a faint glow
In life's vast maze
Where shadows dance and play
I've come to understand
I must find my own way

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

A weightless dreamscape

Standard
Monday 20th January 

A weightless dreamscape 
Finding myself adrift
Lost in ethereal realms
The mind does sift

Through misty depths
Of subconscious cloud
Transcending into a world
Of illusions loud

Floating through layers
In a state sublime
Time has no meaning
Where space does chime

Whispers of the wind
Roaring, soaring high
Above worries of the world
Where one can fly

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Remembering Frank

Standard
Saturday 18th January 

You’d be forty today
But thirty you remain
Your presence echoes  
A sweet, gentle pain

In your struggle
You wore a brave disguise
With courage strong
Reflected in your eyes

Huddled in chairs
Loved ones drew near
With tear-streaked faces
Battling their fear

Yet amidst the hope
Shadows loomed wide
With every heartbeat
You fought back the tide

Chemotherapy’s grasp 
A nemesis bold
Stripped away strands
Of the dreams you told

Ten years now passed 
The seasons do turn
Ten years uncounted
Our hearts ever yearn

Heaven, your haven
With wings spread free
We cherish your life
Immortal absentee

Though a decade has passed
Your memory survives
Remembering your exploits
That's the way love thrives

You reign gently above
Where the heavens glow
Forever remembered
Where love's rivers flow

Happy heavenly birthday
Darling Frank to you
Remembered forever
Missed so much too

No matter how long
As memories replay
It will always feel
Like yesterday

Love you so much
Precious Angel son
Gone to soon
Now forever young

Sweet release

Standard
Friday 17th January 

In the quiet corners
Of the darkest night
Where shadows dance
With the moon's light

A world unseen
By the waking eye
Whispers secrets
To the boundless sky

The stars do listen
Each a silent friend
To the subtle dreams
That from minds ascend

In their argent glow
Finding our peace
A moment's respite 
For a sweet release

Love you so much
Precious sons
Treasured Mum

Quiet month

Standard
Thursday 16th January 

During this quiet month
Where shadows might loom 
A little light
Can shift the grey to bloom
January's mood
In balance it does sway
Just enough sun
To chase the clouds away

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Soft shadows

Standard
Wednesday 15th January 

The hours stretch
Unmeasured, wide
No rushing clocks
No need to hide

Lazy sunlight
Tries to warm the air
Soft shadows
Linger everywhere

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum

Sundays

Standard
Sunday 12th January 

Sundays are gentle
Soft and slow
A quiet rhythm 
A peaceful flow
The world moves calmly
Free from haste
A day for dreams
For time to waste

Love you so much
Precious sons
Beloved Mum
