Just relaxing by the pool No hurries, no worries, just cool Watching the clouds fly by Beneath an umbrella, shaded from the sky
The sun beats down, but I don't feel the heat In this moment, it's a complete retreat The water glistens, the breeze softly blows Feeling so content, as the day slows
No need to rush, no need to stress Just peace and tranquility, nothing less This moment of bliss, so simple yet profound I'm grateful for this calmness I've found
So I'll stay here a while, and let time pass Watching the clouds, as they float by so fast In this poolside oasis, simply so free Relaxed, rejuvenated, and just being me
Love you so much Treasured sons Beloved Mum xxxxx

Morning coffee in the square Watching the world go by A moment to pause and breathe Before the day starts to fly
The aroma of freshly brewed Wafts through the morning air Steam rising from the cup A moment of bliss to share
