Tuesday 21st October 

And it's a slow farewell 
To a wonderful summer's spell 

Lingering warmth of sun on soft skin 
Memories made from deep within 

Golden days now start to fade 
As autumn colours are displayed  

Gentle breezes whisper low 
Where summer's vibrant flowers grow 

Sweet fragrance lingers in the air 
A final moment beyond compare 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Monday 20th October 

Twenty eight degrees 
A little warm breeze 
I'll take that,yes please 
Watching sparkling seas 
Those worries to ease 
And the days to seize  

Love you so much

Sunday 19th October 

Golfing range beckons 
Green and wide 
A peaceful space 
Where worries hide 

The rhythmic swing 
A gentle grace 
A smile appears 
Upon the face 

The ball takes flight 
A soaring dream 
Beside the putting 
Surface green 

Relaxing thoughts 
Begin to flow 
Watching lazy 
Welcome breezes go 

No pressure here 
Just simple fun 
Beneath the warm 
And golden sun 

A perfect end 
To day's sweet song 
Where I truly feel 
That I belong 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Saturday 18th October 

Lagos sun rises warm and gold 
Marina craft bobbing new and old
Burgau beach, a tranquil scene 
Worries fade, life is serene 

Guia calls, a gentle hum 
The piri piri aromas succumb 
Chicken sizzles, spice takes hold 
A taste of Portugal, brave and bold 

From bustling streets to ocean breeze 
A journey travelled with such ease 
Sleepy Guia, a welcome sight
Filled with flavours, warm and bright 

Memories linger, sweet and clear 
Of Lagos, Burgau, holding dear 
The piri piri's fiery kiss 
Portugal's charm, just can't resist 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Friday 17th October 

Engines roar like thunder 
Slicing through the air 
At Autódromo Internacional 
The thrill's beyond compare 

Wheels spin and tires screech 
A dance upon the track 
With every lap they race 
There’s no time to look back 

So many twists and turns 
There's no room to spare 
As the adrenaline flows 
Screaming through the air 

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Treasured Mum

Thursday 16th October 

On Lagos streets 
Bustling life takes hold 
October sunshine 
Paints scenes of gold 

Market stalls 
With colors bright 
Clothing, bags, linens 
A feast in sight 

Vibrant commodities 
Daring and sweet 
With every step 
In the city's heartbeat 

Lagos Portugal

Wednesday 15th October 

From Tavira to Lagos Marina 
Such a bustling place 
Where echoes of laughter 
Spread across the face 

The sun dances bright 
On the shimmering tide 
In a harbour of dreams 
Where hopes coincide 

Fleets of boats sway 
Their sails catching light 
Each journey begins 
A beautiful sight 

With whispers of longing 
The ocean waves speak 
In the heart of each traveler 
Adventures they seek 

From bars that welcome 
With stories untold 
To beaches where treasures 
Of memories unfold 

So here's to the voyage 
Where spirits roam free 
From Tavira to Lagos 
A few days of fun and glee

Love you so much 
Precious sons 
Beloved Mum

Tuesday 14th October 

It's your birthday today 
Three quarters of a century 
A journey filled with love 
Laughter, and sweet memory 

Together we've built dreams 
In sunshine and in rain 
Through valleys and through peaks 
We've weathered every strain 

So here's to you, my husband 
On this, your special day 
May laughter fill your moments 
That come what may 

Happy birthday to you

Monday 13th October 

Sunbeams dance 
On water bright 
A perfect scene 
Of pure delight 

Cool drinks near 
A gentle breeze 
Rustling palms 
And swaying trees 

The world outside 
Begins to fade 
Peaceful thoughts 
In the shade 

No urgent calls 
No tasks to do 
Calm reflections 
Fresh and new 

Love you so much 
Precious sons

Sunday 12th October 

A slow Sunday 
Drifts like a whisper 
Wrapped in warmth 
Of a fading smile
Hazy sunshine 
Spills through the branches 
Casting gentle shadows 
Stretching all the while
